Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-4779:
--------------------------------------

The tutorial I have written shows how to integrate different BIRT reports into Seam.
The BIRT reports that are mentioned on the page no. 30 are just examples that users can replace with their own reports.
For instance, the ProductCatalog.rptdesign is a standard BIRT report sample (http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/examples/solution/ProductCatalog.html). In order to execute this report, you need to install BIRT's Classic Models database.
BirtProductsPdf.xhtml, BirtProductsFrameset.xhtml and BirtProductsEmbedded.xhtml calls the ProductCatalog.rptdesign report in different ways.

I have attached the reports mentioned on the page 30. They can be included in the documentation, if necessary. 
We can also create a project example for some of the examples described in the documentation.

> The documentation for Birt integration wtih JBoss tools is completely broken.  Flow of the documentation, language etc are secondary.
> Primarily many of the examples that are included are completely broken.  It would take forever for users to figure out what is missing.
> Example: Page 30 that talks about inserting Birt in Seam pages, is broken.  Where are the files like BirtProductsPDF etc ?
> How do users create those files ?  There are no instruction on how to create them, nor where to obtain them from.
