Hi,


I am using 2.5.x versions of all the Geotools modules and I’m trying to get
a map with several data sources displaying. I’ve gone through the ShapeLab
tutorial, and I’ve got the shapefiles from my system displaying and I can
zoom in, out, and pan. Now I want to add another layer of data—this time
from a WMS—underneath the shapefiles, so they are both displaying.



I am using JMapPane to display this data, and initializing it with a
MapContext. I’m just not sure how to add an image from a WMS into the mix
here. I tried the WMS example, and I can request and receive an image. But
how do I dynamically request the image given my zoom and extents?



Is there a way to add a WMS server to the MapContext so that Geotools can
issue requests to the WMS, or do I have to do something like:

-determine the CRS and extents so I can request an image that will line up
with my shapefiles

-prepare and issue a request to the WMS

-get the response and somehow put it into the MapContext so that it displays
on the screen



Am I even thinking about this the right way? I’d really appreciate any
direction on this.



Thank you very much in advance.
