Prithviraj Jain

<p>Is it possbile to integrate BIRT report designer with the Java applications ? So that end-user of the java application has an option to launch the preconfigured (if any configurations required) BIRT report designer and design/modify the reports.</p>

<p>If you are talking about integrating the Eclipse BIRT Designer into an Eclipse RCP app, then a previous thread talked about that at <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/21480-integrate-birt-report-designer-in-java-application/'>http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/21480-integrate-birt-report-designer-in-java-application/</a></p><p> </p><p>Otherwise, for web apps, you can build your own custom parameter pages that let users select the report pieces and then use a combination of a BIRT Design and some scripting to show/hide things or completely construct the report that way.</p><p> </p><p>On the commercial front, BIRT Studio from Actuate lets web users create their own new or partially created reports.  You can learn about that and download a trial at <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.actuate.com/products/birt-designers/birt-studio/'>http://www.actuate.com/products/birt-designers/birt-studio/</a></p&gt;
