[Beginer]Looking for examples with Java

Hello, 
Iam also looking for examples where I can add java classes into BIRT, and how to passe parameters to Birt, in the goal to generate report ? 
I know how to do java classes, but I don't know where to put them. How to interact with Birt. 
They are classes for datasets of course, and classes for presenting into the report. 
In this wonderfull example 
<a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.vogella.de/articles/EclipseBIRT/article.html'>Reporting with Eclipse BIRT and POJO - Tutorial</a> 
the classes and tutorial are well presented, but Hendrik Still did not say where to put classes in the report. How can Birt reconize our classes ? 
 
Thanks for any help

Hi peuplier, 
 
Take a look at this <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.com/devshare/deploying-birt-reports/633-birt-placing-java-classes-for-use-with-javascript/#'>post</a> from the devShare. 
 
Hope this helps.

Thx again Michael,
even though there is a basic question, for a beginner as me - :-) - there is not obvious to guest where to find, put, the classes.

This is what I do when I want to use java classes as objects in javascript.

idk if this will help you but, it might.

my workspace is .../reports

I have two projects

.../reports/BIRT
.../reports/JavaEventHandlers

//I sometimes put objects in my event handlers folder which is probably not great programming practice

I created an object with the package reports.events

so my files are located like this

note I kept my java and class files in the same folder...

java files:
...reportsJavaEventHandlersreportsevents <.java, .class files>

report files
...reportsBIRTreport.rptdesign

and I called my object in javascript..

importPackage(Packages.reports.events);

var db = new DateLowerBoundFinder(maxDate,pTimeInterval);

I don't know if this is what your asking but it may help.

Good luck,

Dave
