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.
model/org.eclipse.birt.report.model/src/org/eclipse/birt/report/model/util/ReportDesignSerializer.java
public void visitReportDesign( ReportDesign obj )
	{
		sourceDesign = obj;
		targetDesign = localizeDesign( obj );
		visitSlots( obj, targetDesign, IReportDesignModel.SLOT_COUNT );
		localizeExternalSelectors( );
		addExternalElements( );
		addExternalStructures( );
		
		localizeDimensionConditions( );
		
		release( );
		
		targetDesign.getVersionManager( ).setVersion(
				sourceDesign.getVersionManager( ).getVersion( ) );
	}
	/**
	 * Releases some memory instantly.
	 */
	private void release( )
	{
		elements = null;
		externalElements = null;
		externalStructs = null;
		currentNewElement = null;
		cubes = null;
	}
	/**

	 * design directly. Must not be in the included libraries of source design.
