Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-5070:
----------------------------------------
to my understanding fop cannot completely replace BIRT given that it's just an
xslt pdf generator whereas BIRT is a full reporting engine with css like
formatting, cubes ... you name. add to that the full integration with eclipse
that makes sending it to attic an unappealing idea. I'm new in here so not sure
if the project has proper replacement ?
> Problems With BIRT Reports
> --------------------------
>
> Key: OFBIZ-5070
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5070
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Tom Burns
> Assignee: Jacopo Cappellato
> Attachments: InvoiceAcctgTransEntriesPd 8008f.pdf,

> Following are results of testing BIRT across four revisions in an effort to
> identity where BIRT reports work and where they do not.
> Four critical revisions were identified:
> 1. r1003469 introduced BIRT reports in accounting which no longer work.
> 2. r1293999 upgraded the BIRT version after which some reports no longer
> worked
> 3. r1361130 moved BIRT from framework to specialpurpose breaking other reports
> 4. r1407740 is the current release for compairson
> In the current release the BIRT ofbiz-component.xml was altered to mount BIRT
> reports and the BIRT Examples (which are no longer in the Example ment) were
> invoked manually (https://localhost:8443/birt/control/main).
