Launch Birt Designer (Open File) via Command Line
system_migrated
Hello everybody,<br />
<br />
I need your help very urgent and I hope someone could help me ?<br />
<br />
I need to open the <strong class='bbc'>BIRT Reports Designer</strong> (2.5.2 or 2.6.1) together with a new File or a File specified by me through an java application. So I used the common java technics to open the external BIRT.exe from the Designer.<br />
<br />
But in contrast to other applications the Birt Designer or even eclipse doesn't support any argument to open a given file from the file system or maybe from Database.<br />
<br />
The only solution I found, was the new OpenFile Feature for eclipse 3.6 but this doesn't work for the BIRT Designer, and I have to use the Designer (RCA) for my Project, not the BIRT eclipse plugin.<br />
<br />
So I hope there is a plugin or any solution ,<strong class='bbc'>to open a report Design in the BIRT Report Designer via Command Line</strong> or special arguments given to the BIRT.exe file.<br />
<br />
I'm looking forward to your replies. Thanks...

Hi ,
Not sure if you've seen this bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=301033
But, you should be able to do something like:
eclipse c:/fullpathtoreport/myreport.rptdesign
to call a specific report design with eclipse from the command line.
