I looked at BIRT - it is part of Eclipse. It is pretty new and I
found the documentation to be pretty limited. Also, it has few output
options. These factors caused me to decide against it. Settled on
JasperReports and like it a lot. It integrated easily with my Java
(Eclipse RCP) GUI. Creating reports isn't any harder than Crystal
Reports. In my GUI, I use an xml file for a report list, so I can
add, edit, and delete reports easily without altering program code.
