| To do what you want you can create a "Startup" extension. I think it is org.eclipse.core.startup. Or something like that. It requires you to implement a simple interface. In that interface you will need to check the catalog for your "Globe" shapefile and add it if its not there. Then you need to open a map. 1. ApplicationGIS.getProjects() to get all the projects (there's often just one and in your case almost for sure). 2. projects.iterator().next().getElements(IMap.class) to get a list of all the maps. Search for the map you've created. Maybe base search on name 3. I'm going to assume if your map isn't created then the resource is not in the catalog so lets create a resource for your shapefile services = CatalogPlugin.getDefault().getServiceFactory().acquire( new URL("file://path to my shapefile" ) ); 4. CatalogPlugin.getDefault().getCatalog().addService( services.iterator().next() ); Add services to catalog. 5. map = ApplicationGIS.addLayerToMap( null, services.iterator().next().resources( ProgressManager.instance().get() ).iterator().next() ); 6. map.setName( "Name to identify map" ); Done. There are lots of useful code snippets at: Cheers, Jesse On 25-Feb-07, at 8:57 PM, Ellis Yu wrote:
