[udig-devel] DB2 testing - major progress

[David Adler <dadler@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This morning I managed to get this mostly working.

The dialog to locate the JDBC drivers is very nice - thank you. :-)

Various problems / peculiarities:

1. When exiting and restarting uDIG, the project/map/layer appears in the 
Projects pane but nothing is drawn.  Clicking on 'Roads' (my layer) results 
in the message "Layer not rendered".  From the Catalog pane I can see the 
layers and when I add it to a map, it is drawn ok.

2.  After filling in all the fields on the DB2 connection dialog, I had to 
click "finish" twice to move on.

3. With the main-2.1.RC1.jar and db2-2.1.RC1.jar that were pulled into the 
uDIG lib directory, progressing from the connection dialog resulted in:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:

Hi developers,

I have added a new wiki page to the RnD section, describing my thoughts about
the future map, map layer and rendering architecture within GeoTools:

http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Map%2C+Layer%2C+Data+and+Rendering+Architecture

The text is quite lenghty, but you can print it out and read it while being
stuck in a traffic jam or so. ;-)
It covers
- what's there (as far as I understand it - those that developed the classes may
want to correct errors of mine and add their reasons why they did things the way
the did them.)
- where we want to go
- lots of questions to decide on, our options and my opinion
- more technical design aspects and some ideas of mine to this

I have already included some of your opinions/ideas from former emails and would
like to advance now towards more specific technical suggestions and decisions.

Since this topic will likely affect many people, I encourage you all to have a
look and comment on it (either directly in/on the wiki or give me feedback via
email). This document is in progress, so certain aspects are missing. If you
find an issue that also needs discussion, add it or tell me.

I'm looking forward to your ideas and opinions on the questions picked up there.
