[udig-devel] Which branch to choose?
|
Hello everybody,
I'm approaching Udig development to build customized GIS Viewers. We
have previously developed a GeoTools DataStore to use in GeoServer. The
DataStore is written for GeoTools 2.3.x (to use it in GeoServer 1.5.x)
and we are currently migrating it to GeoTools 2.4.x (to use it in
GeoServer 1.6.x).
Obviously we'd like to reuse our DataStore, implementing a new input
source for Udig as well, but unfortunately:
- current version (1.1.x branch?) is using GeoTools 2.2.x (a little bit
old for us, if we wish to reuse the DataStore as is). I managed to build
this branch locally following your documentation, so we could start
"developing" in a short time.
- trunk is using GeoTools 2.5.x (too new :-) ). I tried to checkout
trunk, but I didn't get to a succesful build. Maybe someone an help me
to accomplish it, but firstly I need to understand if developing on
trunk is feasible if we need to build a "stable" product.
So, we're in the middle of the "way" (2.3.x - 2.4.x) of what Udig is
currently using (2.2.x - 2.5.x). Either choice would mean to branch our
DataStore.
Now, my question is: have you got any suggestion on the branch to
choose? Do you intend, in a short time, to evolve 1.1.x to a more recent
geotools version? I don't know if we can give you any help in this
direction (I have just started "studying" Udig), but I'll be glad to do
what I can.
Thanks,
Mauro Bartolomeoli
