Trying to reduce size of Ear moving plugins to Platform/plugins

grather

I have been working with Birt2.3

I got it working awhile ago.

But now we are trying to go into production and I see many duplicate files laying around.


I am using a servlet running the ReportEngine in my own app.

So I have
WEB-INF/Platform
WEB-INF/Platform/configuration
WEB-INF/Platform/plugins

WEB-INF/ReportEngine
WEB-INF/ReportEngine/configuration
WEB-INF/ReportEngine/lib


What I did was copy the plugins from ReportEngine to Platform.
As found in a help me file.

So I tried deleteing the plugins from the ReportEngine.


It seems to work.
Should it am I doing something legal or am I all messed up

Do I really need to have all the plugins in two directories.

So when I first started this mess some months ago.

I got it to work.

Now going back I actually followed the instruction from Oreilyy

Download the ReportEngine zip file.

Create a WEB-INF/platform directory
Copy the need files into there.
Create a WEB-INF/lib copy the files into there.

Then stop.

I had also creed a ReportEngine directory.
It wasn't needed at all.

So much easier now that it works.
Instead of when I was trying to wrap my head around it all.
