Is this proposing to use the ServiceInfo interface as it stands today. If so I am afraid this proposal gets a -1 from me. To be blunt the catalog interfaces in geotools have been a dismal failure... indeed they probably should have been removed.
Adding a dependency from data access on the catalog will do way more bad then good imho. I am pretty sure Johann can solve his issue without the need for changing api like this. Why not just add some methods to the datastore imlementation classes: ShapefileDatataStore#getShapefileURL(); JDBCDataStore#getDataBase(); JDBCDataStore#getHost(); etc... That way Johann can righ a convenience method that does instance of checks against a datastore and returns the proper description. -Justin Jody Garnett wrote: > After a bit of work on IRC Eclisa has his first bug report: > - http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-1657 > > And a proposal: > - http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Introduction+of+getInfo > > Cheers, > Jody > > Jody Garnett wrote: >> Even the udig guys are a bit stuck on this one; we want to record a list >> of warnings associated with a FeatureSource.
