Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-9323:
----------------------------------------
I'll remove it in 5 days or so.
Following https://eclipse.org/birt/documentation/integrating/viewer-setup.php
to https://wiki.eclipse.org/Birt_3.7_Migration_Guide#BIRT_Viewer, I read:
bq. *BIRT Viewer:* In addition, the Runtime contains a Java EE AJAX based
viewer that uses the Report Engine API to run and render reports and supports
pagination, table of contents, and exporting to all supported formats. This
viewer is available as a WAR (BIRT.war) or in exploded format
(WebViewerExample). Many of the features of the viewer can be customized by
modifying JSP fragments and JavaScript files located in the webcontent
directory. See below for deployment instructions for the new Viewer.
And If I look at https://wiki.eclipse.org/BirtPOJO_Viewer_Tomcat_Deployment, we
would clearly need to use the exploded format, and so have EPL v1 source code
in OFBiz which is unacceptable (see LEGAL-296)
*Note:* We already use Birt 3.7.1, so it seems to me that we already use the
POJO viewer. But anyway the Birt viewer is unfortunately a dead end in OFBiz.
As I said above we can suggest users to follow the easy steps documented by
the Birt project and use the Birt viewer in their own OFBiz instances.
