Hello everybody.

I need to use BIRT Report Engine 3.7 in a web app, built with Gradle.

Gradle uses Maven repository to fetch dependencies, so I need to find all the jars/poms required in the Maven repo. I added the dependency, poms/jars were downloaded, then I got this runtime error:

org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.UnsupportedFormatException: The output format pdf is not supported.
	at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.EngineTask.setupRenderOption(EngineTask.java:1938)
	at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.RunAndRenderTask.doRun(RunAndRenderTask.java:96)
	at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.RunAndRenderTask.run(RunAndRenderTask.java:77)


As I'm new to BIRT, I had to do some investigation. It appears to me that the PDF emitter (which I need) isn't present in the Maven central repo, only the HTML one.

Is this correct or am I missing something? If that is the case, how can I do to get things working? Maybe upload all the required jars (maybe from BIRT Report Engine package) to a local Maven repo, then using it to fetch my BIRT-related project dependencies?

Thanks in advance for any hints.

Regards,

Fabio

We are currently working on getting the BIRT libs in an official Maven
Repo, but currently your best approach is to just use a local repo.

Hi all,
what about:
h-ttp://wiki.eclipse.org/Maven_Tools_4_Eclipse

They are building maven.eclipse.com with that tool, there is even a Birt 2.6.2 in there. But since Birt 3.7 seams not to be part of Eclipse 3.7 it's not automatically there.

They even have a mode where maven central dependencies are used.

It might be easier to contact them and ask if they can push Birt 3.7 with that tool
into maven.eclipse.org.

Best wishes

Stephan,

We will definately look in to this. BIRT 3.7 is part of the Eclipse
indigo release train. I wonder when 2.6.2 was uploaded?
