Hello,
Sorry about the following post is a being a bit long, but I'm having
a huge problem with Birt 2.2 that I'm not able to fix.
I updated from Birt 2.1.1 to Birt 2.2 and I started getting the
following problem when viewing the reports on Tomcat server. It prints
on console "Can't load the report engine" and that causes a
NullPointerException later on my code when trying to call methods of
the report engine.
Because the "Can't load the report engine." print to console was
located in birt sourcecode I investigated it a bit. The "Can't load
the report engine" is printed from the class
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.ReportEngine constructor and it
looks like the following.
<code>
public ReportEngine( EngineConfig config )
{
try
{
Platform.startup( config );
}
catch ( BirtException ex )
{
ex.printStackTrace( );
}
Object factory = Platform
.createFactoryObject( IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY );
if ( factory instanceof IReportEngineFactory )
{
engine = ( (IReportEngineFactory) factory )
.createReportEngine( config );
}
if ( engine == null )
{
System.out.println( "Can't load the report engine" );
}
}
</code>
So, apparently the engine is null because it prints the "Can't load
the report engine". After a bit more investigation i found out, that
it never creates the engine because the if clause returns false in the
following part of the code.
if ( factory instanceof IReportEngineFactory )
{
engine = ( (IReportEngineFactory) factory )
.createReportEngine( config );
}
This is because the factory variable is also null. This is because the code
Platform.createFactoryObject( IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY );
returns null. After a bit more investigation from the
org.eclipse.birt.core.framework.Platform class I found the root of the
problem there.
The startup method of the Platform class should create the Platform,
but for some reason it is left null. Here is the piece of code that
should create the platform.
<code>
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;
}
catch ( Exception ex )
{
platform = null;
throw new BirtException( "org.eclipse.birt.core", "Can't startup the OSGI framework",new Object[]{}, ex );
}
</code>
After debugging I found, that although the comments say that the
platform should not be null any more, it still is and I don't have any
idea what is wrong with that. I checked the logs from
"WEB-INF/platform/configuration" -folder and they say the following:
<logs>

</logs>
Here is also the code that I use to create the report engine. This is
mostly copied from examples from the book "Integrating and Extending
BIRT".
<code>
private static void initBirtEngine(ServletContext context) {
// Report _engine configuration
EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
config.setPlatformContext(new PlatformServletContext(context));
//Runs in the context
config.setEngineHome("");
//Set up image handler
HTMLEmitterConfig hc = new HTMLEmitterConfig();
hc.setImageHandler(new BirtImageHandler());
hc.setActionHandler(new BirtHTMLActionHandler());
config.setEmitterConfiguration(HTMLRenderOption.OUTPUT_FORMA T_HTML, hc);
try {
Platform.startup(config);
} catch(BirtException e) {
LOG.severe("Birt threw an Exception! " + e);
}
$engine = new ReportEngine(config);
LOG.info("Birt Engine initialized.");
}
</code>
Everything worked fine with Birt version 2.1.1 but with 2.2 it
doesn't. I still would like to use 2.2 because of the new features it
adds. Is this a bug with my code or Birt 2.2 source codes and how can
if fix this?

Hi Klaus,
I think I faced the same problem.
I had to add in WEB-INF the "platform" directory (25 mb!!)
I do not think (or at least hope) that all this libs are mandatory.
So question for Birt Dev, which files/libs are *REALY* necessary to run
version 2.2 ??
Thanks

Did you replace all the libs in the web-inf/lib directory with the 2.2
libs and did you replace all the plugins in web-inf/platform/plugins
with the plugins from the 2.2 runtime download (not the designer download)?

All are not required, but we do not specify a minimum. The reason for
this is that we can not know which functions of the runtime you are
going to use. For example if you do not require xls output or the xml
datasource these plugins can be removed.

Yes, I replaced the web-inf/platform/plugins folder with the
runtime-2.2 ReportEngine/plugins folder and also replaced all the libs
with the ReportEngine/lib .jar files.

In 2.2 you do not need the Emiiter Config, but this should not be
causing this issue. Take a look at this example.
