Hi

I have a BIRT report that uses a Scripted DataSource in a SEAM web application.

When I embed my report like this:

<ui:define name="body">

                <rich:panel>

                        <b:birt designType="embed"

                                designName="/report/register_entries.rptdesign" embeddable="true">

                                <b:param name="reportTitle" value="Register Entries" />

                        </b:birt>

                </rich:panel>

        </ui:define>

... the report runs fine. Report.initialize() as well as open() and fetch() methods are called.

When I try to use the frameset viewer, or try to use designType=run to create pdf/xls like this:

<b:birt xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"

xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib"

xmlns:b="http://jboss.com/products/seam/birt"

designType="frameset"

designName="/report/register_entries.rptdesign"

title="Register Entries Frameset Report">

</b:birt>

and

<b:birt xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"

xmlns:s="http://jboss.com/products/seam/taglib"

xmlns:b="http://jboss.com/products/seam/birt"

designType="run"

format="pdf"

designName="/report/register_entries.rptdesign"

title="Register Entries PDF Report"/>

I get my data from a SEAM component in the open() of the Scripted DataSet as follows:

var reportDataProvider = Packages.org.jboss.seam.Component.getInstance("reportDataProvider", true)'

When using designType frameset or run, reportDataProvider is null. I'm not entirely sure why.

My problem seems to be the inverse of this http://community.jboss.org/message/326971#326971

Any ideas?
