How to handle the Jetty inclusion

[hvonbargen]

The previewer not working is a real show-stopper.

I am working on including jetty. The effort is combined with #640

[hvbtup]

To avoid confusion: The issue I am seeing is that when unzipping the generated birt-report-designer-all-in-one-4.9.0-2021*-win32.win32.x86_64.zip, calling eclipse.exe there, switching to the Report Design perspective, open any report and and then selecting the menu entry Run -> View Report -> As PDF (or As HTML) this results in

HTTP ERROR 503
Problem accessing /viewer/preview. Reason:
Service Unavailable
Powered by Jetty:// 9.4.15.v20190215

So it seems like Jetty is included somehow, but obviously BIRT and Jetty don't like each other. Is this the issue you describe here?

[wimjongman]

Yes.

Did you read https://www.optimaw.ch/change-to-jdk11-lts/ ?
It seems as if this is a little complicated, but solvable. At least Andrej Dimic seems to have solved it.

[wimjongman]

I wish I had seen this sooner. I basically went through the same research. Please note that the current HEAD is now compiling with JDK11.

you can get the compiled jetty-plugin here; https://www.optimaw.ch/nexus/#browse/browse:birt-reloaded, if needed.

Fixed and verified.
