Hi Don, thanks for the pointer. Yes, I see that that class uses the
same approach that I was using, keeping displayrealtype names unique
using a counter. Obviously (??) any existing displayrealtypes are just
discarded when the scalar maps are removed. Your class really does have
much that i need, I'll consider subclassing it.
There are existing subclasses already (MapProjectionDisplayJ3D,
MapProjectionDisplayJ2D) so I'm not sure you need to create your own.
On a related note, is there any form of 'tutorial' or docs on IDV for
developers? The user's guide seems more of a manual for the IDV app
itself. The class library looks very powerful, it might just be that
people don't know what there is available and/or where to look.
Unfortunately, no. It's on the list of things to do. ;-)
Your best be now would be to join and post to
idvdevelopers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and we can answer specific questions
there.
Don
