Accessing the BIRT report design and BIRT resource path in custom ODA plug‑ins
ODA providers often need to obtain information about a resource path defined in ODA consumer applications. For example, if you develop an ODA flat file data source, you can implement an option to look up the data files in a path relative to a resource folder managed by its consumer. Such resource identifiers are needed in both design-time and run-time drivers.
ODA consumer applications are able to specify:
*The run-time resource identifiers and pass them to the ODA run-time driver in an application context map
*The design-time resource identifiers in a DataSourceDesign, as defined in an ODA design session model
