[udig-devel] SelectionListener Problem

[Lucas, Michael]

I am having a similar problem, I tried to instantiate an ILayerListener
in my plugin and tried to trap the selection event with the following
statement: 

if(event.getType()==LayerEvent.EventType.FILTER)

But, when selecting a feature, the listener code never seems to be
executing.  Is there anything else I need to do to plug the listener
into uDig so it picks up the selection event?  Or is there any sample
code out there that listens for selection tool events?

thanks!

-Mike

Hi, 

The selection listener API hasn't been fully integrated with the rest of
the platform yet.  So you have to use ILayerListeners and listen for
Filter events.  When something is selected the filter that represents
that selection is set on the layer where the selection occurred.  That
layer is typically the currently selected layer so you can either listen
to all layers or have a IEditManagerListener that listens to layer
selection events and retargets your listener each time the selected
layer changes.
