Bug 116706 Bad Class Cast in IDEReportEditor.java
So I'm trying to open a report with BIRT/Eclipse API using the BIRT 2.0 nightly build code (as of 11/16/2005). the file IDEReportEditor.java method private IFile getFile( IEditorInput input ) { return ( (ReportFileEditorInput) input ).getFile( ); } However, input can be ReportEditorInput which is also an IEditorInput (to support reports found outside projects and workspaces) which doesn't even have a getFile() method on it. This causes a deeply nested exception that causes the report desinger to not be able to show a report that might be physically located outside a workspace.
UI/org.eclipse.birt.report.designer.ui.rcp/src/org/eclipse/birt/report/designer/ui/internal/rcp/wizards/NewReportTemplateWizard.java
{
		
	}
	public void setInitializationData( IConfigurationElement config,
			String propertyName, Object data ) throws CoreException
	{
		
	}
	/**
	 * Set report basic settings.
	 * 
	 * @param model
	 * @throws IOException
	 */
	void setReportSettings( Object model ) throws IOException
	{
		ReportDesignHandle handle = (ReportDesignHandle) model;
		try
		{
			handle.setDisplayName( settingPage.getDisplayName( ) );
			handle.setDescription( settingPage.getDescription( ) );
			handle.setIconFile( settingPage.getPreviewImagePath( ) );
		}
		catch ( SemanticException e )
		{
		}
		handle.save( );
	}
}
