How to run the report in BIRT Designer that has iHub API

jkamaraj

Hi, I have the following iHub API code to retrieve the user roles in the onPrepare method.
 
 
userRoles = reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerContext").getUserRoles();
reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerContext").appendToJobStatus("The user roles: " + userRoles + "\n");
 
This runs fine when the report is run in the server. However, when run in designer I get this error:
 
TypeError: Cannot call method "getUserRoles" of null
 
How can I change the code to check if the report is running on the designer and if so, do not make the getUserRoles() call?
 
Thanks.

Hi Raj,
 
You are probably running your report in BIRT Designer Open Source. In that case, it is normal that get("ServerContext") returns null. The following code should work for you:
 
serverContext = reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerContext"); 
if (serverContext != null) { 
 userRoles = serverContext.getUserRoles(); 
 reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerContext").appendToJobStatus("The user roles: " + userRoles + "\n"); 
} 
else 
 reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerContext").appendToJobStatus("Running in the designer");
 
Hope this helps,
 
P.
