[BIRT 2.3.1 Runtime] How to generate 1 report in several formats at the same times?

Hi,

I am using "genReport.bat" file to generate my BIRT reports in formats XLS and PDF. To call this command file, I created another .bat with this content:

SET BIRT_HOME=D:birt-runtime-2_3_1
SET OD=C:BIRT_Reports

CALL genReport -f XLS -o %OD%RejectAnalyzerFinal_MU_%nDateFrom%_%nDateTo%.xls -p "DateFrom=%nDateFrom%" -p "DateTo=%nDateTo%" RejectAnalyzerFinal.rptdesign

CALL genReport -f PDF -o %OD%RejectAnalyzerFinal_MU_%nDateFrom%_%nDateTo%.pdf -p "DateFrom=%nDateFrom%" -p "DateTo=%nDateTo%" RejectAnalyzerFinal.rptdesign

I would like to know how to specify in the command line to generate both formats (XLS and PDF) at the same time?

Any idea?

Thanks

The report runner test program does not support doing this. You could write your own RE API class that runs the report to a rptdocument and then uses the rpt document to render to all the output formats. This would prevent queries from rerunning.

Thanks for your reply Jason, I am going to investigate this solution.
