[udig-devel] Default Styles

[Jesse Eichar]

If you don't mind depending on net.refractions.udig.style.sld you can  
use the following snippet to put an SLD on the style blackboard:

layer.getStyleBlackboard().put(SLDContent.ID, mySLD);

I think the object has to be a SLD object.  Another thing you could  
do is get the default style using:

layer.getStyleBlackboard().get(SLDContent.ID)

and modify that.  However if you do that you will have to tell the  
layer to update.
