Jim,
I do not think we have anything to do this quickly, but you could write
a simple DE API app that opens all the rptdesigns in a folder and does
the save.

Jim,
I was just thinking to do it with a command line app like the following:
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import org.eclipse.birt.core.framework.Platform;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.DesignConfig;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.IDesignEngine;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.IDesignEngineFactory;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.ReportDesignHandle;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.SessionHandle;
import org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.activity.SemanticException ;
import com.ibm.icu.util.ULocale;
/**
* Simple BIRT Design Engine API (DEAPI) demo.
*/
public class FileIterSave
{
public static void main( String[] args )
{
try
{
updateReports( );
}
catch ( IOException e )
{
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch ( SemanticException e )
{
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
static void updateReports( ) throws IOException, SemanticException
{
// Create a session handle. This is used to manage all open designs.
// Your app need create the session only once.
DesignConfig config = new DesignConfig( );
config.setBIRTHome("C:/birt/birt-runtime-2_5_1/birt-runtime-2_5_1/ReportEngine ");
IDesignEngine engine = null;
try{
Platform.startup( config );
IDesignEngineFactory factory = (IDesignEngineFactory) Platform
.createFactoryObject(
IDesignEngineFactory.EXTENSION_DESIGN_ENGINE_FACTORY );
engine = factory.createDesignEngine( config );
}catch( Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}
SessionHandle session = engine.newSessionHandle( ULocale.ENGLISH ) ;
ReportDesignHandle design = null;
try{
File f1= new File("C:/work/TestReports/");
File []fileList = f1.listFiles();
for(File f2:fileList){
System.out.println(f2.getPath());
design = session.openDesign(f2.getPath());
design.save();
design.close( );
}
Platform.shutdown();
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
System.out.println("Finished");
// We're done!
}
}
