Bug 176436 Charts Imported from Libraries do not update when libraries change
During a live presentation of BIRT at EclipseCon, we came across a rather embarassing issue. When charts are included in a library, and imported into a report design from a library, any changes to the library instance of the chart do not reflect in the report itself.

if ( values == null || values.isEmpty( ) )
			return;

				.conditionalStartElement( DesignSchemaConstants.SIMPLE_PROPERTY_LIST_TAG );
		writer.attribute( DesignSchemaConstants.NAME_ATTRIB, propName );
		for ( int i = 0; i < values.size( ); i++ )
		{
			PropertyType type = prop.getSubType( );
			String xmlValue = type.toXml( getModule( ), prop, values.get( i ) );
			if ( xmlValue != null )
			{
				writer.startElement( DesignSchemaConstants.VALUE_TAG );
				writer.text( xmlValue );
				writer.endElement( );
			}
		}
		writer.endElement( );
