Bug 199751 getProperty(...) returns null
I created report with user property called "version". Later i need to access that property using BIRT Runtime. I access it using getProperty() method: Report: <list-property name="userProperties"> <structure> <property name="name">version</property> <property name="type">string</property> <property name="isVisible">true</property> </structure> </list-property> <property name="version">1.0</property> Accesing using BIRT Runtime: ReportRunnable reportDesign = engine.openReportDesign("Report.rptdesign"); String version = reportDesign.getProperty("version"); When there's a library linked to Report.rptdesign, version is null. When i remove the library from report design, getProperty() returns correct value.

	{
		elements.push( newElement );
		if ( propDefn.isListType( ) )
		{
			List tmplist = (List) value;
			for ( int i = 0; i < tmplist.size( ); i++ )
			{
				DesignElement tmpElement = (DesignElement) tmplist.get( i );
				tmpElement.apply( this );
			}
			elements.pop( );
			return;
		}
		( (DesignElement) value ).apply( this );
		elements.pop( );
	}
