[udig-devel] Can feature, created programmaticaly, has another ID than "newN"?

[Jesse Eichar]

Hi,

So this is a tricky part of the API.  When features are added to a  
new datastore the ids are chosen by that datastore so that the  
datastore does not have duplicate ids.  There is nothing that can be  
done about that.   However the AddFeaturesCommand does have a  
getNewFeature method that returns the new feature.  Also if you use  
the CopyFeatureCommand it will automatically select the copied features.
