BIRT POJO datasource support

Hi, I currently have some BIRT reports/designs that use the newer POJO (Plain Old Java Object)  based  data sources (BIRT 4.x).
This is basically a Java / JAR file which implements a class that BIRT uses to retrieve a defined data (plain old java object class methods you've  defined are selected in BIRT to retrieve the data fields which make up a dataset.)  In the backend ,  in my case I have  REST APIs calls to the actual sources to retrieve and normalize that data of interest. No DB involved. 
I can create/import this BIRT design file in ReportServer and my report executed works.
But is there any way to import this BIRT POJO as a datasource in ReportServer as well?
I don't see a way at least in Community Edition... but I'm a novice on ReportServer
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated
Thanks!

Re: BIRT POJO datasource support

Hi,

welcome to the ReportServer forum.

In case you do not provide a datasource to the report within ReportServer, ReportServer will use the datasources as they are defined within the BIRT report itself. As for adding additional jars, they need to go into 

INSTALL_DIR/apps/reportserver/reportserver-conf/lib

if you used the Bitnami installer and

/opt/reportserver/lib

or

C:\Program Files\reportserver\lib

if you followed our manual installation guides.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Thomas
