Birt Chart Rendering Problems

I am not sure if this is the right place, but if it is not, I would appreciate if someone tells me which one is the right place for my question.

I created a report with 8 charts. The seventh chart is the only one that doesn't render properly. In the preview window while I am configuring the chart it looks good, but as soon as I preview the whole report the chart’s series doesn't take the dataset values but some arbitrary values I don't know from where they come. The odd thing is that it happens in the seventh chart and not in the eighth or nay other chart in the report.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide me

Scrollable table

Hi all.

I'm trying to create an HTML report with a scrollable table in a grid in another table.

I'm trying to get the innermost table to be scrollable so it doesn't grow and mess up the rest of the report.

I've seen kclark's devshare here but it doesn't seem to be working in 4.2 for some reason. The scroll bars appear, but the table just grows to show all of the records. The sample in the devshare also grows and does the same thing mine is doing. I don't think this is the intended result?

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

Need to see parameter dialogue after hyperlink

I have a report that calls other reports by hyperlink. They run fine and the parameters passed from the parent do condition the children.

When I call a report by hyperlink that has additional parameters, the child report opens with the default parameters instead of displaying the parameter dialogue.

I can't figure out how to set a book mark or other condition in a child report so it will open with the parameter dialogue.

Is it possible?

I am using Birt 3.7.1 and MS SQL 2008 R2

Flow report content across multiple page columns

I'm working on a simple report that has multiple groupings and such. The data shown for each detail section is pretty small, so I'm looking for a way to make better use of a page. What I'd like to do is flow the data from column to column across the page. The details section fits very nicely in about 3in. of space, so taking a standard 8.5x11 sheet of paper, i can fit 2 columns in portrait or 3 columns landscape.
Group A Header   |  Group B Header
Group B Header   |  Details
Details          |  Group B Header
Group B Header   |  Details
Details          |  ....
<goto nxt col>   |

----page break

Group A Header
...and so on

Is there a way to layout the report in this fashion?

I have a report that works perfectly in preview mode, when I deploy it in web application I get a different result (missing data)

All text data is not loaded although in debugging mode I can see the engine getting data from the database.
The second problem, I have two sets of images to display depending on a two datasets. The first set shows only one image although the dataset returns 3 images. I not sure yet the that second set is problematic.

Any idea why I'm getting this discrepancy.

Next Step is to run genReport:

C:\BIRT\runtime\ReportEngine>.\genReport.bat -m runrender -f PDF -o test.pdf -F .\MyReport_0.1.rptdesign

This is the Error i get:

Hi all,

I have a problem with the value of bar chart when I make a export pdf in the birt viewer in my prod server, while in dev server it is displayed correctly.

In my server dev I have a Ubuntu :

Viewer Version : 4.2.1

Engine Version: 4.2.1

JRE version: 1.7.0_17

In server prod a Debian :

Viewer Version : 4.2.1

Engine Version: 4.2.1

JRE version: 1.6.0_18

I think it comes from the Java version, but in Debian by default and the stable version of java is 6.

how can I solve this problem ?

Thank you in advance.

prevent sql injection in dataset

April 15, 2013, 2:24 am

Hi,

Used some days on this problem. searched the web without finding any clear answer. i have a question regarding preventing sql injection when running birt reports.

I build the queryText in 'beforeOpen'-event.

this is an example from my beforeOpen:
this.queryText="select * from MyTable where MyTable.Age=" + reportContext.getParameterValue('ageparam') + " and MyTable.EmployeeName = '" + reportContext.getParameterValue('name_param') + "'";


But i guess this leaves the sql open for sql injection. In Java, one can use prepared statements and by that prevent sql injection. But how to achieve this in Birt when using script in beforeopen?

Solutions ?
- replace all "evil"-characters (as ' and --) before adding paramter-values to the queryText ? not fool-proof i guess?
- is it possible to run preparedstatement with java from the before-open event on dataset ?
- is it possible to run something equal to java-preparedsatement with javascript from the before open event on dataset ?
- some other solution ?

I am creating a computed column
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "0")) {"<1"} else
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "1")) {"1"} else
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "2")) {"2"} else
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "3")) {"3"} else
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "4")) {"4"} else
if (BirtComp.equalTo(row["open_days"], "5")) {"5"} else
if (BirtComp.between(row["open_days"], "6", "14")) {"6-14"} else
if (BirtComp.between(row["open_days"], "15", "29")) {"15-29"} else
if (BirtComp.between(row["open_days"], "30", "44")) {"30-44"} else
if (BirtComp.greaterOrEqual(row["open_days"],"45")) {">45"}
else {"ERROR"}

If I have a value in the open day equal to 11 it will report error however when I check Syntax there is no problem. Any ideas? My other ranges 15-29 and 30-44 work fine.

I am using Birt 2.6.1

Hello BIRT community,

I am using BIRT 2.6.2.
For example: I have dataset with 2 colums. one are names the second are values.
And I wanted to created a bar chart which looks like:

name 1 -----------
name 2 -----------------
name 3 -----
       0   10    20    30    40    50


I have bound the row[name] to the x-series and the row[value] to the y-series. Do I have a logic error because I onyl get the half of the dataset and sorted in very strange way?

For any hints and suggestions thanks in advance.
