Sure. Sorry, I should always use the list rather than private mail.

You already made a start at this here: http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/tutorial/advanced/contentdatastore.html. Should I keep all that or toss it out and start over or ... ?

> 6) talk about performance and show a couple performance examples (cache bounds and number of rows for example) Uh, yeah. I haven't thought about performance at all. If we simply 'copy' some of the tricks from the AbstractDataStore tutorial, that seems a bit silly. In fact, that reminds me I've been meaning to ask: Shouldn't we explicitly describe the differences (and pros and cons) between AbstractDataStore and ContentDataStore? There's a short Note at the beginning of the CDS tutorial, but it doesn't really describe the differences in detail and doesn't answer why/when you would want to use one vs the other.

> 7) Construct JUnit test case
(extending a base JUnit "conformance" test case with if we are really cool) Sure. I created several tests as part of writing the CSV support (see CSVDataStoreTest). I'm not sure what you mean by "base JUnit conformance test" -- please explain.

Nice!

I was going to follow the same format as the abstract datastore; that is...

1) talk a little bit
2) create a read-only datastore
3) go through how to use (can copy the examples directly)
4) create a read-write datastore
5) go through how to use (can copy the examples directly)
6) talk about performance and show a couple performance examples (cache bounds and number of rows for example) go through any extra stuff to make it "real" (this would be where lat/lon columns would occur)

But we can talk about these things on the email list?

I was thinking of adding something new:

7) Construct JUnit test case
(extending a base JUnit "conformance" test case with if we are really cool)

What do you think?

Hi Jody. Just wanted to be sure you saw this comment on GEOT-3580:

I just committed r37263 of gt-csv. I believe with this commit, there is
now sufficient CSVDataStore working to finish this tutorial:
http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/tutorial/advanced/contentdatastore.html#to-be-continued


There are still some other things we could/should do to the csv support,
e.g. the 'generalizing' of the LAT/LON columns.

Let me know if you'd like me to take a shot at finishing the tutorial.
If so, some advice on what you had in mind would be helpful. Otherwise,
I'm open to working on anything else -- point me at something.

Thanks,

Lee
