[udig-devel] epsg-hsql working w/ use of plugin activator

[Jody Garnett]

Managed to fix this; added an Activator that will load before any class 
in net.refractions.udig.libs is touched; the Activator does the following:
>     public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
>         Map map = new HashMap();
>         map.put( Hints.FORCE_LONGITUDE_FIRST_AXIS_ORDER, true );
>         map.put( Hints.FORCE_STANDARD_AXIS_DIRECTIONS, true );
>         map.put( Hints.FORCE_STANDARD_AXIS_UNITS, true );
>         
>         Hints global = new Hints(map);
>         GeoTools.init( global );
>     }
I will try it out a bit more tomorrow; and perhaps we will have a real 
EPSG database for the next tech preview from trunk :-)

PS. Simone tells me that epsg-hsql is needed if the GeoTIFF support is 
ever going to work out of the box
