execute BIRT Script using BIRT API

hi all

I need your help to find a way to execute or evaluate BIRT Script using API !
I get the validate script as the following:

ParameterHandle paramHandle = (ParameterHandle) task.getParameterDefn("FromDate").getHandle();

String validateScript = paramHandle.getValidate();

this validateScript string is a Birt Script looks like the following script:

if (BirtComp.lessThan(params["FromDate"].value,params["ToDate"].value)) {
true;
}
else{
false;
}

I know that i can use :
boolean validate = task.validateParameters();
to execute all validation scripts for all parameters...

but I need to execute a specific script which is shown above.

Please tell me if there is a way or if you have any idea

Thanks all

Hi Saed:
Are you looking to call the validation script in BIRT report from your java code or from within the same report? For the latter, you could set the results of validate function in a global variable and access that variable anywhere within the same report.
