[udig-devel] PropertyService tutorial

[Jody Garnett]

It looks like we did not provide enough information on the wiki for you 
to successfully run this example, I have updated the page with an 
example file:
- http://udig.refractions.net/confluence/display/DEV/2+Training+Materials

I have also organized the page a bit so intro materials occurs before 
advanced material.

> Hi all,
> I'm trying to use the PropertyService sample. I created a new plug-in 
> with all the classes exported from the SVN. I'm developing on a Linux 
> Ubuntu with jdk5 and udig-1.1-RC14-sdk.
>
> I create an action to start and test the service like this, but 
> nothing happens:
> public class AddServiceAction implements IWorkbenchWindowActionDelegate {
> ...
>     public void run(IAction action) {
>         try {
>             //build the url to the properties file
>             URL properties = PropertyServiceActivator 
> .getDefault().getBundle()
>                 .getEntry("propertyService.properties");
>             properties = FileLocator.toFileURL(properties);
>            
>             //get the service factory
>             IServiceFactory factory = CatalogPlugin.getDefault()
>                 .getServiceFactory();
>            
>             //create the service
>             List<IService> services = factory.createService(properties);
>             for(IService service :services) {
>                 CatalogPlugin.getDefault().getLocalCatalog().add
> (service);
>             }   
>         } catch (IOException e) {
>             // TODO Auto-generated catch block
>             e.printStackTrace();
>         }
>     }
>
> ...

> }
>
> Debugging I see that no service is created by the factory. Can 
> somebody help me?
