IdentityCS and LogCS

[Patrick Horisberger <p_horisberger@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Don

Thanks for your help and the new 'IdentityCoordinateSystem' class you
have attached to your last mail.

Meanwhile I've tried to map a RealType object to a logarithmical scaled
ZAxis. I 've abided exactly to your solution, anyhow nothing occurs on
the display.  I've found out that I have never invoke the 'toReference'
method from IdentityCS and LogCS. Maybe that's the fault. But where do I
have to do this ?

Hereafter I've attached some code from my application.

Patrick


 /** This method sets up DisplayTupleType and creates  a
CartesianProductCoordinateSystem with IdentityCS
         and LogCS. */

private void setLogScaledZAxis(RealType col, RealType row, RealType
height) throws VisADException, RemoteException

  {
        SimpleXAxis = new DisplayRealType("SimpleXAxis", true, -1.0,
1.0, 0.0, null);
        SimpleYAxis = new DisplayRealType("SimpleYAxis", true, -1.0,
1.0, 0.0, null);

        DisplayTupleType simpleTupleType= new DisplayTupleType(new
DisplayRealType[] {

SimpleXAxis,

SimpleYAxis});

        IdentityCoordinateSystem ics = new IdentityCoordinateSystem(new
RealTupleType(col, row));

        LogZAxis = new DisplayRealType("LogZAxis", true, -1.0, 1.0, 0.0,
null);

        LogCoordinateSystem lcs = new LogCoordinateSystem(new
RealTupleType(height));

        CartesianProductCoordinateSystem cpcs = new
CartesianProductCoordinateSystem(ics, lcs);

        displayTupleType = new DisplayTupleType(new DisplayRealType[] {
                                                  SimpleXAxis,
                                                  SimpleYAxis,
                                                  LogZAxis }, cpcs);

}
