BIRT Release Candidate 0 New and Notable

With this release of BIRT many new features have been added. The Dynamic Cross Table element is now available as well as a new Web Service ODA. These features and many others are described in the New and Notable for BIRT 2.2 RC0. As part of documenting these features we have dropped a couple new examples into the wiki. For example:

Crosstab Example.

This example is available
here and is an example of using the new BIRT Cube technology in conjunction with the new Cross Table Element. In previous versions of BIRT cross tables could be created, but the number of vertical columns had to be known beforehand. This is no longer necessary, as this example illustrates.

Be sure to download the latest Release Candidate of BIRT and give the new features a try.
