I have started work on some basic coordinate selection tools for OpenJUMP. (They should work in Vivid's JUMP as well, and I will try to test the tools in both platforms.) I will encapsulate the tools and a utility I am calling the Coordinate Clipboard in an extension.
I have created the button icons and have drafted the API for the CoordinateClipboard. I have also begun working through JUMP's CursorTool source code. I am adding some source code comments to the CursorTool class, AbstractCursorTool class and DragTool class. I will add comments to the other related classes if I need to use them or learn about them as part of my extension. I will see if the other JPP developers will allow me to commit these commented source code files back into the CVS. If not, I will add them to a SVN at the SurveyOS site. I will aslo try to take care of the TODO items in JUMP's CursorTool classes left by Jon Aquino. I may not be searching through all the CursorTool classes for these items at this point, but I will take a look at the ones I stumble upon. The first one I will be taking care of will allow developers to use an image with a size other than 32X32 for their cursor icon. If you know of a bug or other design issue with the CursorTool classes that needs to be addressed please let me know. I'd like to take a look at it right now while I'm working with these classes. This CoordinateSelector extension will be the precursor to some simple drafting tools for JUMP/OpenJUMP. I have posted a description of the tools and the Coordinate Clipboard on the SurveyOS Wiki: http://surveyoswiki.pbwiki.com/Coordinate%20Selectors%20Plug-In Please let me know if you are working on something similar. I don't want ot be duplicating another developer's efforts. I will tackle the Ram-Independent Feature implementation after this little project. I thought it would be good to start with something a little smaller and less complicated. It will give me a chance to get a little more familiar with OpenJUMP's code base. These are also tools my Dad and I will need for our current project. The Sunburned Surveyor ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
