I try to use the BIRT 2.1 Report Engine API in a simple Java Application
(no plugin project).

However, I'm getting NPEs for hours now:

EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
config.setEngineHome("c:/birt/birt-runtime-2_1_0/ReportEngine ");
// (System out states: 'Can't load the report engine')
ReportEngine engine = new ReportEngine(config); // <==== NPE !

I tracked this down to
" org.eclipse.birt.core.framework.Platform#startup(PlatformCon fig) ".


============== snip =================
// start up the OSGI framework
try
{
launcher = new OSGILauncher( );
// startup the OSGi framework,
launcher.startup( config );
// the core plugins is loaded in the start up
// 1. platform should not be null any more.
// 2. the IFactoryService has been registed
// see
// org.eclipse.birt.core.plugin.CorePlugin#start(BundleContext
// context).

assert platform != null; // <===== platform *is* null for me !!

}
catch ( Exception ex )
{
platform = null;
throw new BirtException( "Can't startup the OSGI framework",
new Object[]{}, ex );
}
================ snap =================

Hm, no exception here, but platform==null and no IFactoryService around
:-( .....


Any ideas what this could be?
I see tricky ClassLoader stuff in there, perhaps something is wrong with
my execution setting?


Thanks in advance !
Florian

What does the directory structure below ReportEngine look like?
Do you have a configuration directory?

Thanks, figured it out:
The config.ini file in the configuration folder was incidentally deleted
by me !

Nevertheless I think the Platform should not come up with a NPE in such
cases ... is there a possibility for the OSGILauncher to check for
correct directory layout/configuration on startup?

thanks again,
Florian
