How can I correctly write a path for Engine.openReportDesign? 
I am getting this error:: 
org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.EngineException: The design file web/reports/test.rptdesign can not be found. 
I am using glassfish in a .war file, I did put the test.rptdesign in web/reports/test.rptdesign. web is in the root of the .war file. So I don't know why birt can't find the file when I use re.openReportDesign("web/reports/test.rptdesign");

Update::
 
I checked it with an absolute url ala :c://...//test.rptdesign" And it opens fine. But still I would prefer to use a url that is relative to the .war file. Any suggestions?

I followed this thread <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/30548-integration-birt-report-into-web-application-and-deploy-jboss-server/'>http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/30548-integration-birt-report-into-web-application-and-deploy-jboss-server/</a>
 
In case someone googles this thread the solution is.
 
import javax.servlet.ServletContext; 
 
Then ServletContext sc = request.getSession().getServletContext();
String reportName = "test.rptDesign";
 
re.openReportDesign( sc.getRealPath("/reports")+"/"+reportName ); (Where re is the reportEngine instructions for setting that up are in the book Integrating and extending birt 3rd edition)

But, if there is a better way to achieve the goal I would definitely like to hear any suggestions. Since this is dependant on HTTPServletRequest.
