Hi Rafael,

Unfortunately, there is no legend widget in GeoTools presently. Your
query is one of several about this in recent months so it's certainly
a gap that would be nice to fill - though far from trivial to
implement.

If you want the legend to be displayed in the same viewport as the
layers, one way to do it would be to sub-class DirectLayer and do the
drawing in there. If the map styling is very simple you could probably
get an ok result that way. If complex styles are used it's going to be
hard.

Ideally, legend creation would be done with SLD. Perhaps Andrea, Jody
or other SLD gurus could offer some advice on any approaches worth
exploring in that regard.

Sorry I can't be more immediately helpful.

Michael
