Good day to all,
I just filed an <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=494896'>entry</a> on BIRT's Bugzilla for the mentionned bug.
In BIRT 4.5.0 the org.eclipse.birt.runtime-4.5.0a.jar lacks some information in the MANIFEST.MF file preventing a proper loading of the library at startup.
 
For those looking for a temporary workaround you can add the following lines in the MANIFEST to get it working:
 
Bundle-Version: 4.5.0 
Bundle-Name: BIRT Runtime SDK 
Bundle-SymbolicName: org.eclipse.birt.runtime 
Bundle-Vendor: Eclipse.org

We are also getting the same error..
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'engine': FactoryBean threw exception on object creation; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException.
 
Any help regarding this is highly appreciated.
