Hi Andrea:
You came up with exactly the same suggestion I was going to make (extending
ResourceInfo or ServiceInfo as appropriate since this is metadata).
On the GeoServer importer side Torbien and I have experiemnted with storing
the files associated with an "import" as part of the GeoServer metadata map
(allowing us to clean up the files when a service is removed). I like the
idea of making an API at the GeoTools level much better.
I would prefer a FileServiceInfo and FileResourceInfo (rather than a
mixing) - since it is an optional interface you still would not be looking
at any breakage preventing back porting.
I had a question about coverage readers and getSource() - for a moasic the
source probably points to the directory rather than listing all the files
... is that sufficient for your needs?
