Re: [udig-devel] Doubt on the catalog ConnectionFactory extension
|
The ConnectionFactory/ServiceExtension duo make me angry and need to
be fixed they came into originally the ServiceExtension was there but
drag and drop needed more functionality in order to work so
ConnectionFactory was created rather than extending ServiceExtension
functionality. I want to merge the two into a single class but for
now the ConnectionFactory is required for dragging and dropping URLs
onto the map.

I'm developing a plugin to implement a new type of layer for Udig
1.1.x. This layer uses a GeoTools DataStore as a source for data,
connecting to a custom spatial database.
I started "copying" the Postgis plugin, which seems quite similar to
the one I need to write. The plugin is now correctly rendering data
from the DataStore, without the implementation of a
ConnectionFactory (the factory extension has been defined and the
related class exists, but I didn't write any meaningful code in it).
Now my question is: what's the purpose of the factory extension?
Which features of Udig needs it?
Thanks in advance,
