Birt 2.5.1 and Java8 - IllegalArgumentException oda.jdbc?!
<p>Hi Experts,</p>
<p>I know it is an old (very old) version. Unfortunately BMC has frozen the Birt runtime integeration for Remedy with version 2.5.1. In the past (with java 7) the integration works, also with ojdbc6/7.jar.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The new Remedy version is based on java 8 and now we got the attached exception.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I've read a lot of threads here, but I don't find the right information. Hope you can help me.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks in advance</p>
<p>Stefan</p>

<p>Are you able to run the report using the BIRT 2.5.1 Designer with the Oracle JDBC driver? Or create a simple example report connecting to the same database?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In my test, I can successfully connect and generate a report using the following combination:</p>

<p>Hi Clement,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>apologize the very long delay, I had lost hope to fast Now I'm back, hope you too...</p>
<p>I can't start birt designer 2.5.1 with java 1.8. I got a swing class error. Currently I've no system access therefore I can't attach the error message.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'll check this on monday next week.</p>
