Hi,

I'm wondering. If I've got a reader (JUMPReader) and I'm using it in a
DataSource, I often run into the problem of communicating data that was read
from the file to the application. Example:

I'm parsing a MapInfo file and would like to store the parsed style information
somewhere. From the reader/datasource I've no access to a global Map or the
generated layer. The only thing I have is the feature collection that is
created. To work around the problem, I wrote another plugin that reads and
applies the style information (since plugins have the PlugInContext containing a
whole lot of information).

Is there a way how I can communicate information from the reader to the rest of
OpenJUMP? Maybe we could add a hook like

public void postLayerCreation(Layer layer);

to the JUMPReader interface?

Best regards, Andreas
