Hello,

For a custom parameter page using BIRT tag library, the multi-value parameters are always be rendered as single-value list boxes, which does now allow user to select multiple values.

ParamDefTag class modified for using multiple values parameter in cascade

Hello,

the problem origin is in the "org.eclipse.birt.report.taglib.ParamDefTag" class.

The method : "__handleListBox( )" does not treat the case of cascading parameter with multiple values.

My proposition is to replace the line : "__handleCascadingListBox( );" by this lines :
"if ( this.paramDef.isMultiValue( ) )
				__handleMultiListBox( selectionList );
			else
				__handleCommonListBox( selectionList );" in the block concerning cascading parameter.

I add an attachment with the modified class.

Have a nice day,
JM
