The same doesnt work with this..

Hi Rapporter

I already download all the code needed. Now im confuse, in the Servlet Example it says to download the birt-runtime-2_1_1. When i check now already have birt-runtime-2_3_1.

So i download the 2_3_1. When i unzip the file, i could not find the lib directory inside the ReportEngine directory.And also couldn't find the configuration directory in the ReportEngine directory. I only found the plugins directory in the ReportEngine directory. So now how suppose im doing this?

Same happen in birt-runtime-2_1_1. I couldn't fine the directory needed.

Hi Rapporter,

I already download the code.zip. Now can u tell me how should i start? I mean where should i store the code(BirtEngine and DynamicReport)? And what should i do in eclipse? Need i create one dynamic web page name Dynamic Report or what?

Im using eclipse 2.3.2. I already created Customers.rptdesign. How suppose i call the Customers.rptdesign when im creating the dynamic web page?

Im doing like below:
1- File-New-Project-Web-Dynamic Web Project-project name-Target Runtime(Tomcat 6.0 im using this version)-Finish

when i click finish the dynamic web page will be created and i should find the index.jsp under the web-inf folder. but then i couldn't find those file?

is there any step i forget or it has another way to get the index.jsp using eclipse?

Hi Rinki,
I was not able to embed it through BIRT tld. I was using RE API to generate report so I used deffreent approach to do so.
I created a ByteArrayOutputStream which i made output stream for report response. I displeyed the in JSp.
