As many of you are aware BIRT uses the Data Tools Platform (DTP) project’s Open Data Access (ODA) standard to access data. Currently BIRT supports the following data sources:
JDBC
XML
Flat File
Web Services
Scripted Data Set
In addition, BIRT provides two project wizards for creating new ODA drivers.
The ability to query Ecore models, for use within BIRT reports, has frequently been requested. Jeff Ramsdale and Tim Myer have recently contributed an ODA driver to the DTP project that queries the Ecore model using the Object Constraint Language (OCL). To read more about this driver take a look at the proposal.
Be sure to drop by the DTP newsgroup to comment on or discuss this new ODA.
