[udig-devel] animation using a MapGraphic

[Jesse Eichar]

In order to re-render simply get the layer and call Layer#refresh 
(null).  (That will request that the entire layer is re-rendered).
Each map graphic has its own layer so you basically just have to find  
the correct layer.  You can do that by asking each layer:

layer.hasResource( YourMapGraphic.class );
