Description Yulin Wang CLA 2007-03-14 03:49:24 EDT 
Chart team will provide simple chart API, and it needs integration into BIRT framework by extension point in model.

Spec available here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/BPS66

Besides, simple chart API also needs interface for Font and Color in model.

What's the ETA for that bug resolultion?
Comment 2 Rick Lu CLA 2007-03-28 01:53:20 EDT 
Chart need to implement extension.IReportItem.getSimpleElement(). The return object should be simpleapi.IReportItem. 

l. If the chart want to provide multi row data function, need to extend simpleapi.IMultiRowItem. This should work for Chart, CrossTab.

2. for other extension elements, need to extend simpleapi.IReportItem. This should be OK for RotatedText.
Comment 3 Rick Lu CLA 2007-03-28 05:13:26 EDT 
Since current only Multi row item is required, provided wrapped MultiRowData in api.extension package. Wrapped simple class for api.simpleapi.IReportItem will be provided later.
Comment 4 Yulin Wang CLA 2007-03-28 22:56:30 EDT 
New interfaces of Font and Color are useless in model, and will not be added in model until it's in common use.
Comment 5 Rick Lu CLA 2007-03-29 02:22:56 EDT 
Fixed.
