Birt Images with IText never ends - image

Question

I'm working with Birt reports and, when i want to generate a pdf file, it never ends. The problem is in the line.
IRunAndRenderTask.run. I have no exception when I create the IBirtEngine.
Here is the code to create the BirtEngine and the reports designs.
private static IReportEngine birtEngine = null;
private static IReportRunnable examenAuditifReportDesign = null;
private static IReportRunnable bilanCollectifReportDesign = null;
private static Properties configProps = new Properties();
static{
loadEngineProps();//Read the birt configuration properties
EngineConfig config = new EngineConfig();
if( configProps != null){
config.setLogConfig(configProps.getProperty("logDirectory"), Level.INFO);
config.setBIRTHome(configProps.getProperty("birtHome"));
config.setResourcePath(configProps.getProperty("ressourcePath"));
config.setEngineHome(configProps.getProperty("birtHome"));
config.setProperty("birtReportsHome", configProps.getProperty("birtReportsHome"));
}
try {
RegistryProviderFactory.releaseDefault();
Platform.startup( config );
} catch ( BirtException e ) {
e.printStackTrace( );
}
IReportEngineFactory factory = (IReportEngineFactory) Platform.createFactoryObject(IReportEngineFactory.EXTENSION_REPORT_ENGINE_FACTORY );
birtEngine = factory.createReportEngine( config );
try {
examenAuditifReportDesign = birtEngine.openReportDesign(
new FileInputStream(birtEngine.getConfig().getProperty("birtReportsHome") + "/examenAuditif.rptdesign"));
bilanCollectifReportDesign = birtEngine.openReportDesign(
new FileInputStream(birtEngine.getConfig().getProperty("birtReportsHome") + "/bilanCollectif.rptdesign"));
} catch (EngineException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
And here's the code to execute the reports.
IRunAndRenderTask task = birtEngine.createRunAndRenderTask(examenAuditifReportDesign);
task.setParameterValue("RPT_ID_Travailleur", t.getId());
task.setParameterValue("RPT_LATEST_HA", params.getId_latest_ha());
task.setParameterValue("RPT_LATEST_EXAMN", params.getId_latest_examen());
task.setParameterValue("RPT_PREVIOUS_HA", params.getId_previous_ha());
task.setParameterValue("RPT_PREVIOUS_EXAMN", params.getId_previous_examen());
PDFRenderOption options = new PDFRenderOption();
options.setOutputStream(outputStream);
options.setOutputFormat("pdf");
task.setRenderOption(options);
task.run();
task.close();
and is in the task.run(); line that it takes forever, and i tried for about 1 hour or 1 hour and a half and it does not end.
If anyone can help it will be really apreciated.
Bye and thank you.

Answer 1

If this report works in a birt Eclipse designer then it should work with a birt runtime API, the issue is in your code.
You need to close yourself the outputStream sent to the PDFRenderOption object, when the task has terminated
Add this line to your code:
options.setSupportedImageFormats("PNG;JPG;BMP");

Answer 2

I found the problem and it wasn't neither of the two API's.
We were trying to generate a pdf file for worker, and we were zipping all the pdf file of all the workers, and this zip was saved in a blob in the database. That was the problem.
If the zip is saved in the File System it works ok.
thank you all.
