Hi all, So as many know i have been working with an H2 datastore for the wfs 1.1 cite stuff. Hooking it up in geoserver lead to a requirement to be able to store the datastore files in the data directory. To do this i needed to supplement the data store factory with knowledge about the geoserver data directory.
I had a couple of options to do this: 1. Use the DataStoreInfo.getParams hack This involves naming the parameter something that ends in "url" and setting its value to "file:/...". 2. Plug into the Geotools factory service provider stuff to allow data store factories to be loaded from spring. 1 is a pretty brittle hack, and it bleeds into the configuration page which I think make it confusing. So i did not go with it. 2 was a dismal failure. I managed to plug into the geotools, but it lead to a circular dependency at start up time. I had neither the smarts or patience to debugg the geotools factory loading process so i forgot about that. So what I did do was come up with another GeoServer extension point: org.geoserver.data.DataStoreFactoryInitializer (data module) it basically gets invoked when ever a data store factory is instantiated (from DataStoreUtils) to do any post initialization, and it works!! I know that I should have probably discussed this before committing, but i am on a tight deadline for the wfs 1.1 xlink cite deliverable, and its a pretty non-invasive solution, so i dont forsee any huge issues with it. Please review, its commits 8634 and 8635. If there are any problem I can modify / back out or whatever. -Justin -- Justin Deoliveira The Open Planning Project [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
