[news.eclipse.birt] Re: Dynamic Connection Profiles

[Virgil Dodson <vdodson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Thomas,

What version of BIRT are you using?  In my simple testing with BIRT 
2.2.0, mine worked.  I exported my connection profile to a file (not 
encrytped), and then used that connection profile for my BIRT data 
source.  When I change the database URL in the text file, the next run 
of the report uses the new data.  I did not try to change anything else, 
like the driver, username or password.
