[news.eclipse.birt] scripted dataset jar file

[Thomas Krupa <thomaskr@xxxxxxxx>]

i have a scripted dataset using my own jar file.

for the rcp designer 2.2.0 i used to put my jar file to
C:\birt-rcp-report-designer-2_2_0\plugins\org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer_2.2.0.v20070620\birt\scriptlib

and the report would work fine.

the new rcp designer 2.3 does not have this directory. i only found a 
scriptlib folder in
C:\birt-rcp-report-designer-2_3_0\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles\99\1\.cp\birt\scriptlib
which also has a file saying "The default directory to place BIRT script 
lib files."

however this did not work for me.


in addition to that i tried to add my jar file as a resource to the 
report. which worked out well.

is this the correct way to do this now?
since many of our reports use this jar file, do i have to manually 
change each of the reports and add the jar file as a resource or is 
there a simpler way to do this?

thanks
thomas
