Query Related to BIRT Viewer

Rubbish

Hi Everyone,

I am sorry for posting two much basic questions related to BIRT on forum.
But i am again with a very basic question again.

Is it possible to use Report engine to run a report in BIRT RCP plug-in.

Let me explain the things.
When i say preview the reports get run and rendered automatically.

what i want to do is to create a menuitem say- run_when_i_want in BIRT UI.when user will click on this button it will check some condition and will run the report in will display the results in viewer.

Is it possible???

thanks in advance..

Regards,
Sachin

Hi Sachin,<br />
<br />
Yes it is possible to execute a report from your application. <br />
<br />
If you are looking for example code that uses the BIRT Report Engine API to deliver a report directly from your application as PDF, or similar, then look at the example at <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/devshare/deploying-birt-reports/568-execute-birt-reports-from-java-class/#description'>Execute BIRT Reports from Java class - Designs & Code - BIRT Exchange</a><br />
<br />
If you need to display the BIRT Web Viewer within an RCP app, then also look at this example at <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/devshare/designing-birt-reports/889-rcp-app-with-birt-and-scripted-datasource/#description'>RCP APP with BIRT and Scripted Datasource - Designs & Code - BIRT Exchange</a>
