I have some data in the form of XML which contains few records and also created one RPT file.

So now, how can i call birt to generate report by passing XML and RPT as input parameters.

I am completely new to BIRT. Any code example wil be appreciated.

There are good tutorials in the help contents of the BIRT software. Also anyplace you write code (other then SQL) you can write Java or JavaScript.Schlemiel

try this:BirtEngine.java:

    }
    public static synchronized IReportEngine getBirtEngine(ServletContext sc) {
        if (birtEngine == null) 
        {
            EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
            if( configProps != null){
                String logLevel = configProps.getProperty("logLevel");
                Level level = Level.OFF;
                if ("SEVERE".equalsIgnoreCase(logLevel)) 
                {
                    level = Level.SEVERE;
