Re: [birt-dev] Scripted Data Source (Java Object as Event Handler) How-t

Johnnie,

This is technically a mailer for the developers of BIRT.  Since this is a relatively common question, I have answered it on the wiki.

You can find it here:  Java Event Handlers FAQ

Hi,

I have the following event handler:

...

public class ScriptedDataSetEventHandler extends ScriptedDataSetEventAdapter
{

    ...

    private int currentCount;

    @Override
    public boolean fetch(IDataSetInstance dataSet, IUpdatableDataSetRow row)
{

        if (currentCount++ < 11) {

            try {
                row.setColumnValue("cnt", currentCount);
            } catch (ScriptException e) {
                
            }

            return true;

        }

        return false;

    }

    public void open(IDataSetInstance dataSet) {

        super.open(dataSet);

    }

and my question is: where must I put this class so that BIRT can see it -
both at development and deployment time?

Thank you for your attention,

Johnny
