I would agree that different dialogs for loading data from databases
and from files is a good idea.
It seems like Paul put a lot of work into improving the way OpenJUMP
loads files. Do we have reasons why Paul shouldn't commit? If we do,
then we should put together a bullet list that we can discus
Uwe,
I agree that we need to have a Add Dataset wizard that at the first step
would show icons for the types of dataset that can be loaded, File,
Database, WFS, WMS etc). When selecting these the next panels in the
wizard would be specific to that type of data set. In fact the panels I
have for fi
Hi Paul,
you are right! Databases aren't files.
But databases are a good concept to load and save datasets!
We need a unique dialog to load and save datasets in files *and* databases.
And we have good Load and Save functions (Load Dataset(s)... and Save
Dataset As...)!
The dialog is simple to use

Stefan,
Databases aren't files so wouldn't be loaded by the Open File Plugin
I'll have a look at the Pirol stuff to see what is there.
I saw Michael's MIF plugin has some options.

Hi Stefan,
1. The second and third steps are skipped if they are not required, so
you will just see the Finish button in these cases (shp, WKT, JML are
theses cases).
2. FileDataSourceQueryChooser that register with the
DataSourceQueryChooserManager will automatically get added. The only one

Hi Michael,
The problem with the previous open file plugin is that it only works
well for a single file in the case where you have an option that can
potentially be different for each file you select (e.g. the GML 2 plugin
requires a template file which is different for each schema). Also there
is
Hi Paul,
Screenshots look nice.
I'm not sure I understood every capability you propose to add.
For me, an important thing is to keep simple things easy to do. I like
to be able to load simple files or files needing one or two options
(configuration file, checkbox option or combobox option) from
Yep.. sounds and looks interesting.
but two questions/comments:
- what about skiping any further dialog - e.g. if jml or shape files
should be loaded without any reference system info necessary. Is that
possible.
- how can we integrate the external plugins that deliver functionality
