Report Generation with BIRT and JPA
This tutorial demonstrates how to create reports based on data in an ObjectDB database using the popular open source Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools (BIRT).

(0, 0), (1, 1), (2, 2), ..., (999, 999)
The BIRT report that we will create will be based on the following subset of these points:
(11, 11), (12, 12), ..., (20, 20)
The data will be presented in the BIRT report using a chart and a table:
