Description Eric B.

The Data Set Advanced tab for a Scripted Data Source exposes a 'Data set row limit' property which ends up as a dataSetRowLimit tag in rptdesign XML.  However, this property is deprecated and is not honored by the BIRT report engine.  

It instead honors a property called rowFetchLimit which, according to Jason W., should be exposed in the Data Set Advanced tab as 'Max number of rows to fetch from data source'.

This was originally discussed in the birt-exchange forum:

Is 'Max number of rows to fetch
from data source' going to be exposed as part of this bug-fix?

Thanks,
