BIRT Interactive Viewer Specifications

BIRT Interactive Viewer is an end user tool to interactively analyze and modify BIRT content and reports on the web, relieving BIRT developers from having to create every iteration themselves. With BIRT Interactive Viewer users can change BIRT web output formatting; hide, add or move data; create charts, sort data and apply functions to data. The BIRT Interactive Viewer supports all the features of the Eclipse BIRT Sample Viewer and BIRT Viewer, is compatible with reports developed with Eclipse BIRT and can view BIRT Data Objects with BIRT Data Analyzer. BIRT Interactive Viewer presents users with an intuitive, AJAX-based UI with no plug-ins or software to install.

In addition to supporting Flash objects with client-side JavaScript to make the reports interactive, it also has a JavaScript API to integrate application content from the server.

BIRT Interactive Viewer is implemented as a viewing service of the BIRT iServer. For BIRT ISV’s and SaaS vendors wishing to include BIRT Interactive Viewer in their product, it can be embedded as a component or with the BIRT Deployment Kit.
