Description Alexander Bieber CLA 2006-06-15 14:15:43 EDT 
Hi all,

some time ago I met Jason W. and Scott R. at EclipseCon and we spoke about a JDO datasource for BIRT as our project JFire has integrated one. We also spoke about contributing it to BIRT so it could be developed further.

It took some time to address this again but finally I could extract the funtionality out of JFire so that it is now available as independent projects.

org.nightlabs.birt.jdo along with its extensions provides a JDO-ODA datasource with creation UI at least for one JDO implementation JPOX. More information here: http://wiki.nightlabs.de/en/EclipseGoodies:Birt_JDO

The code was released under EPL so there should be no proble for BIRT adopting it. Feel free to do whatever you want with it and include me in its further development as much as neccessary. It is still missing a lot, especially on the UI side like a nice JDOQL editor (syntax highlight, content assist) and more, but maybe it can be of use for someone. You can access the code by SVN https://svn.nightlabs.org/svn/birt/

Please let me know of any further plans with a BIRT JDO integration.

Best regards
Alexander Bieber

+1 to add an JDO ODa driver.
