Thanks for the info! I'll just stick with the old version of Geotools for now and wait for the release.

We hope, by this friday, there will be a class JMapPane that will be in Geotools proper. This is currently in a spike module which only exists on the subversion server. SVN/geotools/trunk/spike/ian/src/org/geotools/gui/swing/JMapPane.java if you check out geotools. By friday, we hope to have it moved into the ext/ directory and have it included in the upcoming 2.2.0 release. You might want to wait for the release to save yourself some work but there is some chance the release could be delayed further. If you want to work now, you could grab the code from subversion and base your code on that class. When the release does come you would then have an easy time of porting your code. This has been a long process. *All* of the old gui tools required code which was included but deprecated in 2.1. These classes had to be removed from 2.2, so we lost all the gui code. This was obviously an absurd situation. However, everyone sees that the sustainable way forward is through the GeoWidgets project so no one wanted to fix the broken code. It become apparent that a lot of us needed some simple gui classes right now, so Ian Turton wrote, as an interim solution, a brand new JMapPane for all of us. --adrian On Mon, 2006-07-24 at 16:17 -0400, Jay D.
