[udig-devel] Selection filter changed

[Mark Presling <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Something else has changed since my last source update to revision 19235 
(20/04/06). I used to use LayerImpl.setFilter() to highlight a feature 
on the map using a FID filter. Now this doesn't seem to work correctly. 
It just doesn't do anything at all and I can't seem to track down why.

Has anyone changed something to do with the selection stuff? Should I be 
doing this a new way?

FYI, here is the code I am using to do this:

       IMap map = ApplicationGIS.getActiveMap();
       LayerImpl eventLayer = (LayerImpl) getLayerByName(LAYER_ROADEVENT, map); //My own method
       
       FilterFactory filterFactory = new FilterFactoryImpl();
       CompareFilter filter = null;
       try {
           FeatureSource featureSource = (FeatureSource) eventLayer.getResource(
                   FeatureSource.class, null);
           filter = filterFactory.createCompareFilter(CompareFilter.COMPARE_EQUALS);
           FeatureType featureType = featureSource.getFeatures().getSchema();
           filter.addLeftValue(filterFactory.createAttributeExpression(featureType, "roadeventid"));
           filter.addRightValue(filterFactory.createLiteralExpression(id));
           eventLayer.setFilter(filter);
       } catch (Exception e) {
           e.printStackTrace();
       }



Thanks,
Mark
