Re: [udig-devel] Which branch to choose?
|
One of your questions was how "real" trunk is; geoserver released their
first download based on geotools trunk; as such we should be able to use
it from udig and not have it lock up on the shapefile layers?
If so we can update the walkthough 1 instructions :-D

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
