Devil's advocate here...

Scott and I looked at birt, and discovered these license problems
*very* quickly. They should have been fixed long before the rest of
us(the ofbiz community) was even asked to look at the branch. This
makes me feel that there are a *lot* *more* issues hiding in the rafters.

And, from a practical point, I would vote no to doing what you suggest.

+1, it shouldn't be in a branch if it doesn't comply with the ASL and
if it doesn't make it into the trunk soon I would prefer to see the
branch removed completely.

Unfortunately, the damage is already done at that point. It exists in
the past, for anyone to see. svn is copy-on-write, you can't change
the past.

I have no problems with just about anything being in a branch. Call
me fucked up, make plans to blow up the world, I don't care. But
license issues absolutely *must* be fixed *before* others even see it.
And if others in this community disagree, then I'm sorry, you're
wrong. It's not an ofbiz policy. And even if it were *just* an ofbiz
policy, it's a policy that ofbiz has decided to follow, and being a
member of the community means you agreed to follow it as well.

Hi Hans,

Would it be worth including some documentation that describes how to include the jsp/css/java/etc. files that are needed to use the birt viewer so that users can install the viewer themselves?

Many thanks,

Chris

------------------------------------------

Sorry Hans, but it doesn't make a difference if it's in the trunk or in a branch. Either it is ok to include the files or it isn't and then it has to be removed.

Hi Chatree Srichart,

you are right, but the report tag is not easy to use in other components as we need include some birt jsp tag.

Hi Hans/Chatree,

I still can't get a report to work with parameters. In addition to the current example reports, would it be possible to include an example report using parameters?

Many thanks,

As we now think we solved Scotts concerns we will probably tomorrow
commit some report examples to the birt branch with selection forms...

Hi, WeizhanGuo

You don't need jsp tag. You can use freemarker render html and javascript like jsp tag.
When you use report tag, view source from web browser. You can see some html and javascript for render report.

------------------------------------

Since it is looking for a jdbc driver i suspect you are trying the
access the database directly.

look at the examples in the system how to do this using the delegator
which makes your report database independent.

please ask you questions in the mailing list and do not comment on a
jira issue that is complete closed.
