Where to plugin new IDocArchiveReader [message #695698]

Hi

I am using report engine API to generate the rptDocuments. We have customized the RE to have our own IDocArchiveWriter. This is specified in the Run task and it works fine.
And we are using Web Viewer to view the reports. By default the web viewer looks into a configurable folder to retrieve the documents. But I have my own IDocArchiveReader. Where do I plug this in so that the Web Viewer takes my code to pick the rptdocument.

Any help is very much appreciated

FYI
Using BIRT 2.6.2

Thanks

I believe the only way you will be able to do this is to modify the
viewer source code. The engine supports providing your own
IDocArchiveReader but the viewer does not use this call.
