How do I create an engine w/o engine home?

ychiu

I'm trying to deploy a report that runs as a standalone application and creates a PDF using BIRT 2.2.1.

Does anyone have an example of how to create a ReportEngine w/o specifying the ReportEngine home?

Our artifact server already has all the jars that are supposed to be in ReportEngine/lib and ReportEngine/plusgin/com.lowagie.itext.*/lib/*.jar.

When I don't set the engine home, it complains with the message "Cant startup the OSGI framework"

Is the other option to specify the EngineHomeContext in EngineConfig? Does anyone have some sample code on how to setup an IPlatformContext?
