Trying to test BIRT with a flat file (don't ask, aaargh) and keep getting
the following error when setting up a data set:

A Birt exception occurred.
Error Code:odaconsumer.CannotPrepareStatement
Error Message:Failed to prepare the follwing query for the data set type
(org.eclipse.birt.report.data.oda.flatfile.dataSet).
[select l sIncidentType, x nPotentialLossAmount from Incidents_2005-06-15]
Source data error
Source data error


Anyone have any thoughts as to why?
No thoughts, on this? (eom) [message #49145 is a reply to message #48842] Wed, 22 June 2005 13:05 Go to previous messageGo to next message

Can anyone report successfully working with flat file data sources?

Hi Mark,

I was messing around with flat file stuff a bit back
the format of the data in the flat file, has to be something like

a,b,c
string,string,string
1,2,3
4,5,6
7,8,9


where abc are your labels
string,string,string are your data type for each column
and then of course the data

hope that helps some.

- Mike

Thanks...are you saying the data types have to be 'declared' in the 2nd
rows of cells? I'm not following, completely...
