I'm about to start implementing a new data source, something to allow
IDV to access BCS's
gridded data objects through jdbc. Are there any tutorials/how-to's on
how to implement new data sources?
Hi Eric,
We do have some fairly incomplete developer docs at:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/developer
The best place to start looking is in the ucar.unidata.apps.example
package which is
in the IDV source code release. This has an ExampleDataSource class that
you can use
as a template for your work.
The real work will probably be in creating the appropriate VisAD gridded
data objects.
For examples of that look at ucar.unidata.data.grid.GeoGridDataSource
and GeoGridAdapter.
If you have further questions please feel free to drop us a line.
