Re: [udig-devel] what about charting?
|
Hi Jody,
Wandering through the net I found the article you cited and already
tried the examples out. It seems to be nice and a good starting point
for afterwards go towards a BIRT integrated environment for every report
creation.
Just to try it I had to add following jars to the udig sdk:
org.mozilla.rhino
org.apache.commons.codec
org.eclipse.birt.chart.device.extension_2.1.2.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.birt.chart.device.pdf_2.1.1.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.birt.chart.device.svg_2.1.1.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.birt.chart.device.swt_2.1.1.v20060921-1226.jar
org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine_2.1.2.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.birt.chart.engine.extension_2.1.2.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.birt.core_2.1.2.v20070205-1728.jar
org.eclipse.emf_2.2.0.v200702131851.jar
which added 2.5 Megs.
What is the idea of the udig community? Should the sdk supply the
necessary libraries and keep them in sync?
I'm very interested to go in this direction, but I want to be sure to
follow something that at some point could be standard. (whatever the
word sure could mean ;))
Ciao
Andrea
