Hi andrea there are many I just added a code snippet with decent  
documentation about it.  You can find it here:

http://svn.geotools.org/udig/branches/1.1.x/udig/tutorials/ 
net.refractions.udig.code.examples/src/net/refractions/udig/code/ 
examples/.

This is a plugin that you should have in your workspace under  
tutorials/net.refractions.udig.code.examples.
