I have added the "plugin" branch here:
- http://svn.osgeo.org/geotools/branches/plugin/
Thus far my plan is to:
1) commit my andriod hack into plugin/spike/andriod
It has taught me that:
- ServiceProvider is avaialble in Java 6 (and Andriod)
- The complicated imageio ServiceRegistery we use is not available in Andriod
- RenderingHints is not available in Andriod
Giving me two mandates for the branch:
- Remove references to RenderingHints from factory use; this is an accident of
implementation; so far making our RenderingHints be standalone looks to be a
good approach
- Isolate GeoTools from ServiceRegistery
2) Split gt-metadata into two parts (so we can focus on gt-util and the factory
stuff)
3) Really underlined that ServiceRegistery is too complicated to live
We have the following relationship:
- FactoryFinder uses FactoryRegistry
- FactoryRegistry extends ServiceRegistery (which is insane)
This does leave us with a nice line in the sand:
* As long as FactoryFinders work the library will function
And leaves me with the following problem to wrestle with:
- Can we "fix" FactoryRegistery (and fold out code in behind it?)
- Or do we need to just flat out replace it
