## Package com.bbn.openmap.plugin.esri Description

A PlugIn package that handles ESRI shape files. This package uses the shape file (.shp), the index file (.shx) and the data attributes file (.dbf) file. This package can also create out shape data files. p

The EsriPlugIn has an interactive palette that displays the contents of the database file, and highlights graphics on the map when selections are made. Likewise, when the map is in Gestures mode, clicking on a map object will highlight an entry in the database table.

The EsriLayer, ExampleApplet and ExampleApplication demonstrate the different capabilities of the package contents. The ExampleApplication is an example of adding graphics to a shape file and how to use the components to create a shape file. The Tester object is another, more comprehensive example of using the interactive capabilites of the components to create shape, index and database files.

For more information about the shape file format, check out ESRI's Shapefile specification. Thanks to Doug Van Auken for this great submission.
