merging cells using BIRT design engine API

Hi,

I am generating rptdesign file on the fly using design engine API. I need to merge some of the cells in header row as per the requirement. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance,
Ashish

Try something like this:

importPackage( Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api );
var mytable = reportContext.getDesignHandle().findElement("mytable");

var myheader = mytable.getHeader( ).get( 0 );
tcell = myheader.getCells( ).get( 1 ).drop();
tcell = myheader.getCells( ).get( 0 );

tcell.setColumnSpan(2);
tcell.setRowSpan(1);
