Designer: BIRT doesn't automatically link to library

swerlen

I have a strange but very annoying issue. Every time I open a report for which some items are linked to a library, the items are highlighted in red with an error "Content of this report item is corrupted...". To get rid of this, I have to right-click on the rptdesign and choose "refresh library". However, if I close the report and re-open it, the issue is back. A better workaround is to keep the libraries open (first) and then open the reports. In all cases, this is very annoying for users / developers. I think that this is related that we are using an absolute path for the resource and template folders (Eclipse settings).

Has anybody else the same issue? Is there a fix for it?

Birt Version: 2.5.1v20090624

Hi swerlen,<br />
<br />
I have not heard of this yet, but it sounds like a bug to me without actually seeing the issue. You might search the bugs on this. If you don't find anything, I would log one and see what they have to say. You can do both at the link below. If you don't mind posting any bug info you find or report in here for future reference, that'd be great. Thanks.<br />
