In order to solve a bug I need to change the addSliceLabel() method in BIRT's source.
I reported the bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=386399, but it is going slow and we need to fix it now.

There is some tutorial describing how to change the birt's source and generate the jars again?


Thank you

Thank you Jason,
Just to share my solution.

I downloaded the BIRT sources from GIT through eclipse (all steps described in Jason's link). Had to Add to eclipse some aditional features through "Install new Sofware" option, for the project to compile.

Searched for the class that I wanted to update, PieRenderer.java located in the project "org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.extension", did the code change and after built that project using Ant (BuildChartEngineExtension.xml)

Installed the generated jar in our maven repository.

Updated the pom.xml to include that jar, below:

(...)

<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt</groupId>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.birt.runtime</artifactId>
<version>3.7.2.v20120214-1408</version>

<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.birt.chart.extension</artifactId>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt.chart.extension.render</groupId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>

(...)

<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine</groupId>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.extension</artifactId>
<version>4.2.0</version>
</dependency>
(...)
