Problem with the PlatformConfig

bmario

Hello again.

Recently I've been asked to centralize the reports and since I did that the application throws exceptions when trying to do this:

PlatformConfig platformConfig = new PlatformConfig();
try {
Platform.startup(platformConfig);
} //rest of catch code

We have 2 projects, project A which could be seen as the frontend application where the user ask for a report to be generated, sending the request to project B where all the BIRT related classes and code are. Both projects have in their buildpath all of the BIRT's .jars needed. Project A makes the request through the interface of a service in project B.

In project B there are some classes that encapsulate all of the logic to generate a report. Those classes can be instantiated in project A as well.

Before I was asked to make this change, the classes were instantiated in project A and thus the Platform.startup(platformConfig) was executed on this side of the client-server architecture without any problem at all, but soon after I moved that logic to the server the exceptions began. So far it seems like if it can't find the BIRT's .jars and/or eclipse's plugins, even though the classpaths haven't been changed.

Does anyone have an idea about what could be wrong?

If is of any help, the application is in java and this is part of the stacktrace I get:

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/core/runtime/CoreException
