Hi

I develop AtlasStyler[1], a Geotools + Swing based application to create
SLDs. I think it is much more powerfull than the styling options in
uDig, especially since AtlasStyler version 1.7

Since uDig and AtlasStyler are both Geotools based, I was wondering,
whether it would be able to write a Atlastyler plugin for uDig.

In case it would be possible, this is how it could work for one layer:
* Create an AtlasStyler instance with a FeatureSource and optionally a
Style to load.
* Register a listener with the AtlasStyler, so that style changes can be
preview in the main map pane.
* Create an StylerDialog with the AtlasStyler and display it to the user.

I have no experience with SWT or "Eclipse-based" programming, but I fear
it will not be possible to add a Swing-based JDialog to uDig?

Greetings,
Steve
