[news.eclipse.birt] Re: rptdocument file encryption

[Jason Weathersby <jasonweathersby@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Lisa,

There currently is no extension for this, but the report engine does 
support IDocArchiveReader and IDocArhiveWriter interfaces that control 
how the report document is read and written.  The report engine also has 
methods for calling your specific instance of these interfaces.  If you 
are using the BIRT Viewer you would need to make a good bit of changes 
around opening and running a  report though.  You may want to log an 
enhancement request for this.
