Hi,
I need to capture (1)ipaddress of iServer hosting m/c (2) Management console password(assuming user is administrator) (3) Volume name. Can some one help me how to code in rptdesign file to capture this information?
Thanks....Siva

Everything except the management console password is available in the reportContext object. Check the Working with Actuate BIRT documentation. The section on getting iServer environment variables is here: http://www.birt-exch...rver.19.01.html

Thank you very much. I am able to grab volume and user names. I could not locate the code for IPADDRESS of hosting m/c. Can u please guide me to find it? Also, any other suggestions about password?

Hi siva_birt,
Try the following for server ip

reportContext.getHttpServletRequest().getLocalAddr()

Why would you need management console password in your BIRT report?

[siva_birt]

I need to send them as parameters to another birt report(report bursting)

[siva_birt]

Getting the error " Can not call the method "getLocalAddr""

[siva_birt]

I got it by using :
reportContext.getAppContext().get("ServerURL");

I got a better solution:
importPackage( Packages.java.net );
myownIP = new InetAddress.getLocalHost();
myownIP.getHostAddress();
Now, can someone help me, how to get password?

I dont think you can get password, that would be a security violation. The workaround would be to customize your Information Console single-sign on (IPSE) mechanism.
