As per the uDig meeting this morning we are updating the RenderMetrics
class to try to improve the renderer selection.
For more information see the irc logs and this wiki page:
http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/HACK/Render+Metrics?showComments=true#comments
What are we doing?
* removing the IRendererMetrics interface - all render metrics will
extend the AbstractRenderMetrics instead.
* adding some additional fields to the render metrics (see wiki page).
How will this affect you?
* if you have written any custom renderers that implement the
IRendererMetric interface these will break.
* the IRenderMetricsFactory will now return an AbstractRenderMetrics
instead of an IRenderMetrics
* the AbstractRenderMetrics takes an additional parameter which is a
set of styles ids that the renderer expects to find on the blackboard.
Who to complain to if you have issues?
* Jody :)
* Hopefully once I've made the changes I can help anybody who has
questions.
This should be happening in the next few days. I will send another
email to the list when I have actually committed my changes.
Emily
