Hei Jignesh, Thank you for the info. Until May is pretty soon... so we need to carefully structure the work. I think you will need about 2-3 weeks to get to know OpenJUMP.
So, during the next days, can you * subscribe to the developer mail list? - I send a copy of this email to the list. So people get to know you. * setup OpenJUMP in your programming environment, and * start to learn OpenJUMP/JUMP and its architecture. I.e. you could start with: ** reading the programmers manual (unfortunately it's a bit old), ** checking out the organization of our source-code tree, and ** doing the hello world example the manual: http://www.vividsolutions.com/jump/bin/JUMP%20Developer%20Guide.pdf more info on setting up OpenJUMP (in eclipse) and example code can be found here: http://www.openjump.org/wiki/show/Documentation ...scroll down the page to the developer documentation section You will see, that OpenJUMP is heavily based on a plugin-system. This should help to develop new functionality easier. ========================= While I am writing this I am not sure yet if it would be better to let you work on the GDBMS, Postgis and Oracle write support, or a User Help System. So more questions: * Have you worked with PostGreSQL / PostGIS and Oracle Spatial before? Would you have access to an Oracle installation? I think a start could be to write a PostGIS plugin that allows incremental updating of tables. We have already one here: , but this one updates only complete tables. * can you look into this project and tell me if that is interesting for you as well? : http://gdbms.sourceforge.net/ What we would wish is to load data via GDBMS into OpenJUMP. * It would be also good if you can have a look into this project: H2 spatial: http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/H2+Spatial+Database http://geosysin.iict.ch/irstv-trac/wiki/H2spatial/Download What we would need here is to load data not in-memory but to write them instead in the H2 database. * If you don't like the database stuff above, then you could work on the help system implementation. ====================== Probably we can't help you that much in telling you how to do these things. We can only give hints. And you would need to find out on your own how other projects integrate these tools. Especially there only vague ideas for a help system - but other open source gis have one too where we could look into. However, if you prefer to work on small projects and not such bigger things I can think about such ones too (we have long bug and feature request list). stefan jignesh borisa wrote: > > Hello Sir, > > Thank you for your reply.My course name is Open Source Development We > have to work on Open Source Project.It is our Class project. > I can work for 10-15 hours per week. > My course is already started in this semester. > It will complete in May-2009. > There is not any need to write project proposal as it is class project. > yes I might need to write final report of my work. > ya I have some experience with Geographic Information System and Databases. > I have worked as Java programmer in India.Also I am also doing my > curriculum projects in Java Programming. > Yes I would like to work on tasks that you mentioned in your mail. > > Also I have seen your project.It is quite interesting to work on it. > > Thank you. > > Jignesh > > On Sun, Mar 29, 2009 at 9:54 PM, Stefan Steiniger <sst...@geo.uzh.ch > <mailto:sst...@geo.uzh.ch>> wrote: > > Hei Jignesh, > > thank you for your interest.
