Open design in RCP Designer from the command line in Windows

littleoak

Hi all, I am trying to accomplish %subj% but without success. I use the eclipse equinox launcher option --launcher.openFile but also without success. (<a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse/OpenFileFeature'>https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse/OpenFileFeature</a>) Please is there another possibility how to open a design from the command line? Thanks a lot. OD.

Were you receiving an error when attempting to use the --launcher.openFile?
 
I just tested from the command line using "eclipse.exe --launcher.openFile c:\path\to\report.rptdesign" which worked successfully to open the designer and launch the specified report design.
 
Also, which version of BIRT are you using?

Hello Jesse, 
Thank you for the quick reply.
In this case I want to use the standalone RCP Birt Report Designer (I have tested 4.3.0, 4.4.1... doesn't matter which version) not the Eclipse BiRT perspective.

Ondrej.

Gotcha. From what I can tell the RCP designer doesn't take the --launcher.openFile argument.
 
If this is the only designer you will have running in the environment, you can set the RCP Designer as the default program to handle .rptdesign files in Windows then launch the design directly through the cmd line.

I have solved it by creating eclipse plugin which provides an extension "org.eclipse.ui.startup" and after workbench is initialized opens the desired report design in the design editor (the easiest way without modification the designer's source).

Very cool.
Thank you for sharing your solution.
 
This would be a good addition to the <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php/files/'>DevShare</a> for other users in the future if you would like to add it.
