Hi John,

I m new to BIRT and have found loads of good information from this site. Thanks for that.

I need your guidance, I have a python web app and i wish to use BIRT report engine as i dont want to reinvent the wheel. I m planning to use genReport.sh file to genrate the Reports. But the problem i dont want to specify the data-source in .rptdesign file it needs to be dynamic which mean for each web-request it will fetch from different DB.

Is there any way to give Datasource dynamically or should i recreate the .rptdesgin every time

Please englight me

Thanks in advance
