Hello,
We want to develop an application based on the Eclipse RCP. This
application needs some mapping functionality. Because of the great map
editor, but also the catalog plugins for getting the data and the
basic visualization tools within uDig we really like to use these in
our own Eclipse RCP based application. I think that there are two ways
of realizing this.
1. Create a new Eclipse RCP application and use the udig plugins to
add the mapeditor (and catalog, basic tools plugin).
2. Use uDig as base platform, change the default ui and create new
specific plugins for our application
Um - they amount to the same thing. If you want check out the
community/geodss as a complete example of how to pull this kind of thing
off.

If your application is open source we would also be happy to provide
svn, and some website space to get you going. There are several "uDig
Powered" projects in the community section right now.
My first question is, which option is the best to get a mapeditor in
combination with our own plugins? I though option one because I don’t
change that much (only the plugin.xml) of the uDig plugins. But I
tried the first option but had problems to get the mapeditor working.
I find out that the minimal plugins needed to get uDig working are
The uDig product is aranged into features, have a look to see what is
needed.
Once again check out the geodss project for an example of setting things up.
Can somebody help me? Is there more documentation available? Is it
possible to use the uDig plugins (mapeditor, catalog, basic tools)
inside a new eclipse RCP? Or should I base my application on uDig.
We would love to help you, I am going and write docs about packaging up
the measure tool into a new application this morning (now that I finally
have the measure tool tutorial fixed up).
