Use a php-array as a report-parameter

Hello,

Is the a possibility to use a defined php-array as a parameter in a birt-report (working with the php-javabridge)? If I define an array like this:

$bla = array(‘firstname’ => ‘Timo’, ‘city’ => ‘Hannover’, ‘age’ => 29);

Is there a possibility to work with this array in the birt-report?

Thanks for some answers!

Timo,

Currently BIRT reports do not support object types as parameters. This should be changed in the future, maybe in BIRT 2.6.

The Bridge code could be modified to pass a Java object to the report context which could be used in a report though.

Hello Jason,

Thanks for your answer. Could it be a way to use a JavaScript-Array in the report. I tested a little bit with it and created a variable in the report like this:

var test = new Array();
test[0] = "Kat 0";
test[1] = "Kat 1";
test[2] = "Kat 2";
test[3] = "Kat 3";
test;

Is it possible to set a variable with the php/javabridge or is it just possible for parameter? Could it be a way to “transform” a php-array to a javascript-array and assign it to use in the birt-report?
