Last year I integrated BIRT 2.3.2 into our product so that customers could use the chart wizard to create/manage their own charts. Upon upgrading eclipse to 3.7, we upgraded BIRT to 3.7 as well. While testing the chart wizard, I noticed that the drag/drop to the x/y axis fields no longer works. Specifically, the code that assigns the value has been commented out of DataTextDropListener.

	public void drop( DropTargetEvent event )
	{
		String bindingName = (String) event.data;
		
		// Since in Mac os X/ Linux, the dragEnter method did not validate
		// expression, so
		// here validate the expression. 
		if ( !Platform.OS_WIN32.equals( Platform.getOS( ) ) )
		{
			ExpressionCodec expCodec = ChartModelHelper.instance( )
					.createExpressionCodec( );
			expCodec.setBindingName( bindingName, btnBuilder.isCube( ) );
			if ( !DataDefinitionTextManager.getInstance( )
					.isValidExpression( txtDataDefn, expCodec.getExpression( ) ) )
			{
				return;
			}
		}
		
		btnBuilder.setBindingName( bindingName, true );
		// String expression = (String) event.data;
		// // If it's last element, remove color binding
		// if ( !expression.equals( ChartUIUtil.getText( txtDataDefn ) )
		// && DataDefinitionTextManager.getInstance( )
		// .getNumberOfSameDataDefinition( ChartUIUtil.getText( txtDataDefn ) )
		// == 1 )
		// {
		// ColorPalette.getInstance( ).retrieveColor( ChartUIUtil.getText(
		// txtDataDefn ) );
		// }
		//
		// // Check if dragged expression can be put on target series. For
		// sharing
		// // binding case, Y optional only allow grouped binding.
		// if ( !DataDefinitionTextManager.getInstance( )
		// .isValidExpression( txtDataDefn, expression ) )
		// {
		// return;
		// }
		//
		// btnBuilder.setExpression( expression );
		//
		// DataDefinitionTextManager.getInstance( ).updateQuery( txtDataDefn );
		//
		// // Refresh all data definition text
		// DataDefinitionTextManager.getInstance( ).refreshAll( );
	}



Can anyone explain to me why this code was commented out? Is there a work-around?

Thanks,
Carl

I am not certain why this was commented out. Can you open a bugzilla
entry with the question?
