(Question) Request for a supported product matrix
Hi guys,
I've been using BIRT since a long time (even working for Actuate, before it went bought by OpenText), and i'm happy to see that a "new community" is getting built around the OpenSource Version again.
We were using the Plugin version 4.7.0.v201706222054 with Eclipse 2019-09 (4.13.0) and we had problem to open existing rptdesign. After having updated the plugin to the last version you guys built (4.9.0.v202108150822), all went fine, cheers!!
Our rptdesign are embedded into a Java Application which uses the Birt Runtime Engine to render reports as PDF. In order to get the engine, our application has the following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt.runtime</groupId>
<artifactId>org.eclipse.birt.runtime</artifactId>
<version>4.4.2</version>
</dependency>
Looking at the central Maven Repository, it seems that nothing's really moving with BIRT Runtime: https://search.maven.org/classic/#search%7Cgav%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.eclipse.birt.runtime%22%20AND%20a%3A%22org.eclipse.birt.runtime%22
Do you have somewhere a kind of supported product matrix which would provide the following information:
- Which Eclipse Version is supported by which plugin
- Which BIRT Runtime Version supports which rptdesign
- Which Java Version is supported by which BIRT Runtime
Thanks!!
Thanks for filing the issue. The 4.9 version has not been released. We are still fighting some tough issues. After we have released it, we can create such a matrix.
@wimjongman : one additional quick question ... do you already (more or less) know when 4.9.0 will officially be released?
@wimjongman : one additional quick question ... do you already (more or less) know when 4.9.0 will officially be released?
I expect it to be in December.

@wimjongman I'm looking forward to it too. Btw. the statement on the BIRT page is misleading (just FYI... not sure if you can do much about it...).
