BIRT XML Data Source
This example demonstrates how BIRT can be used to build reports on XML data sources. An XML file or an URI can serve as data sources for a BIRT report. In this example, we utilize URI's to the Eclipse RSS Newsfeed as the data source for a report.
-
Using BIRT Report Libraries
This example demonstrates how BIRT can be used to build reusable component report libraries. In this example, we start by creating a library. We utilize URI's to the Eclipse RSS Newsfeed as the data source for a report and store it in the library. We then publish the library to a resource folder. This example demonstrates…

BIRT Drilldown Combo Chart
This example demonstrates how a Combination Chart can be created within BIRT. In addition this example also demonstrates how to add drill to details, using internal bookmarks and the Chart Interactivity Editor. The combination chart presents the outstanding debt for the top 5 customers in Bar Chart format with a Line…
-
BIRT Cascading Parameters
This example demonstrates how to build a BIRT report that uses a cascaded parameter group. A cascaded parameter group allows a group of parameters to be interlinked, where selecting a value for the first parameter affects the choices available in the subsequent parameters. Cascaded parameters can be tied to one or more…
-
BIRT Data Set Filtering
This example is intended to illustrate Data Set filtering within BIRT. The ability to apply filters on data sets is a powerful feature of BIRT. When integrating data into a report from multiple data sources that may not all provide inherent filtering, the data set filter is a powerful way to consistently constrain data to…
-
BIRT Dynamic Text Example
The look and feel aspects of a report are essential for the end-user experience. BIRT's Text Element allows a broad range of formatting options such as Multi-line text, Text that contains multiple style formats and Text that combines static text with dynamic values retrieved at runtime. This example demonstrates the…
-
BIRT Grouped Listing Report
This example illustrates adding a group section to a listing report. To gain deeper insights end-users often need to look at data in a grouped and summarized form. This example demonstrates how to group data in a BIRT report.
-
BIRT Image Example
Two types of images can be referred to in a report. URI's refer to images read from another location. Images can also be embedded within a report design file. A scripted data source is used in this example to demonstrate how different images are displayed in a report. If you intend to try this example, download the images…
-
BIRT Mapping Example
The report presents a list of customers with their respective credit limits. In the example a new column will be added to the report to display a credit ranking classification. The company may use this field for promotional offers.
-
BIRT Parameter Example
This example demonstrates how to filter the data in a BIRT report at runtime by using report and data set parameters. Report parameters allow end-users to interactively filter the report's data to gain deeper insights. The user is guided through the steps to add a dataset parameter and a report parameter. <br /> <br /> The…

BIRT: Dynamic Image Examples
Two different approaches for getting dynamic images into a BIRT report design. One approach use a script on the image onRender event to change the name of the image at runtime:if(row["CREDITLIMIT"] < 25000 ) this.file = this.file.replace("happy", "sad"); <br /> ...and the other approach uses a computed column on the…
-
BIRT charts nested in table
BIRT report design that shows how to create an inner chart within a table that will use different values for each table. This example shows two different ways to include a chart directly in a detail row that uses a different set that requires a parameter. Another approach uses an inner table (with hidden rows) and the…
