Setup

1. Add the BIRT Viewer plug-in to your project dependencies. Runtime dependencies will be determined by what options your reports use. For example if you use a JDBC data source, then the JDBC plug-in will be required at runtime.

2. Call WebViewer.display from your code. Use one of the following options. Note that browser will need to be defined as an org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser.

//option 1 display with no parameters in url.  
//Parameter box will display if
//required in a seperate window.  
//This uses the /run mapping
//WebViewer.display(reportName , 
//                  WebViewer.HTML, 
//                  false);	

//option 2 display BIRT Viewer in sepearate 
//Browser with /frameset mapping
//WebViewer.display(reportName , 
//                  WebViewer.HTML, 
//                  true);

//option 3 display in SWT Browser 
//using /frameset mapping.
//WebViewer.display(reportName, 
//                  WebViewer.HTML, 
//                  browser, 
//                  "frameset");

//option 4 display in SWT Browser
// using /run mapping.
//WebViewer.display(reportName, 
//                  WebViewer.HTML, 
//                  browser,
//                  "run");
