Hi Jody,

Well met,

I order this book two days ago from Amazon_ca. I am waiting it for Nov 23 2005 - Dec 2 2005 (it is usually ships within 3 to 5 weeks). I also have bought and use intensively the following books:

This is Building Commerical-Quality Plug-ins, best part is the comparison of the different layout managers. The attempt to document PDEBuild is gutsy but quickly dated. Only solution I have found is to ask Justin.

Contributing to Eclipse, best part is the reasoning behind why things are the way they are. If you took the training course with and still have questions about IAdaptable get this book.

Java Developers Guide to Eclipse - I have not read this - any good?

I let me know if it is any good for itself and compare to others. Do you have other book from the Addison Wesley Eclipse Series that you personally recommend for an uDIG developer?

We set up a Reading List on the website about the books that help us:
-<http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/UDIG/Reading+List>

Perhaps when you get the new one you can let us know if it is any good.

P.S. I progress, now I can read information in my database and navigate through the dataset. This is the simplest part of the work. Now I am beginning with the tedious part: exploring how to use Eclipse Visual Editor to build the visual presentation of my dataview. I keep in touch with the udig-devel list.

That is great, I have not used the visual editor yet. I just find an example screen in eclipse, load that plugin in as source code and copy the user interface layout code. And I learn something every time I do it.

Jody
