[Gvsig_english] Automatic allocation of color attributes to shape file vector

[Francisco José Peñarrubia]

Salut, Sebastien.

I think one way can be to inherit from IndexedShpDriver your own class, 
and implement the interface WithDefaultLegend.
Also, override the method getName() and return something like "my shp 
driver with legends" or whatever.

 Pay attention, your driver must be compiled like others (dgn, shp, dxf, 
etc) and copied to gvSIG/extensiones/com.iver.cit.gvsig/drivers.
This way, your users can choose to add one .shp using "gvSIG shp driver" 
(original shp driver) or yours.

I haven't try it, but it may work.

Just one important note: This method can be ok for 1.1.2 release or 1.9. 
If you are developing for 2.0 release, is totally different.

Good luck!!
