Dataset parameter in library

full
edited February 11, 2022 in Analytics #1
Hello,<br />
<br />
I have designed a library with in a dataset, the parameter "year"<br />
<br />
In this library, I have also defined a tab in which I have linked a report parameter with "year" in the dataset<br />
<br />
Exactly as it is showed in <a class='bbc_url' href='http://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/examples/reports/Parameters/Parameters.html'>http://download.eclipse.org/birt/downloads/examples/reports/Parameters/Parameters.html</a><br />
<br />
The only difference is I have done it in a library and not in a true report.<br />
<br />
Now, I try to use this library: I create a new report, and I drop in the tab from the library.<br />
<br />
And I lose all the parameters ! They appear well in the designer, but when I try to run the report, the dataset is empty, exactly as if the dataset parameter was empty, and there is no popup to ask me for the report parameter.<br />
<br />
So, the tab well "copy" in the report, but all its parameter dependencies don't !<br />
<br />
So, How define items in a library which depend on parameters to use them easaly in future reports ?<br />
<br />
Thanks !

    What version of BIRT are you using?

    In my testing with BIRT 2_2_2, I get an error at runtime if I create the data source, data set, report parameter, and the table in the library and only drag the table into the new report. It worked, however, when I also brought the report parameter into the parameters section of the new report from the library.
