DataExtractionOption#setOutputFile fails

BIRT 3.7.2 or 4.3.0 DataExtractionTask#extract always fails on DataExtractionOption#setOutputFile. <div>Exception in thread "main" org.eclipse.birt.core.exception.BirtException: The OutputStream option is required and can't be null.</div><div>at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.dataextraction.impl.CommonDataExtractionImpl.initialize(CommonDataExtractionImpl.java:69)</div><div>at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.dataextraction.csv.CSVDataExtractionImpl.initialize(CSVDataExtractionImpl.java:58)</div><div>at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.DataExtractionTaskV1.extract(DataExtractionTaskV1.java:1301)</div><div>at org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.impl.DataExtractionTask.extract(DataExtractionTask.java:283)</div><div> </div><div>It only works on DataExtractionOption#setOutputStream instead.</div>

Can you create a simple example I can run that shows what you've done? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. I checked the source CommonDataExtractionImpl.java below, 67 if ( options.getOutputStream( ) == null )68 {69 throw new BirtException( PLUGIN_ID,70 Messages.getString( "exception.dataextraction.options.outputstream_required" ), null ); //$NON-NLS-1$71 } It seems that BIRT doesn't implement #setOutputFile but merely #setOutputStream on data extraction. Any opinions?

You might take a look at the example XML data extraction plugin used in the BIRT books. It'll show you how it writes to an output document.: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.actuate.com/products/resources/?articleid=22889'>http://www.actuate.com/products/resources/?articleid=22889</a>
