open ecw files offline as base map

[idozoar]

Hi,

I'm new to ArcGIS runtime sdk for java.
I need my app to open my own base map that represented by about 6-7 .ecw files (including of course matching .aux files).
How do I add a layer from .ecw file to JMap?
I  tried:
JMap map = new JMap(); ... String rasterPath = "k5521.ecw"; //the file is in the folder of the project
FileRasterSource rasterSource;

try {

     rasterSource = new FileRasterSource(rasterPath);

     RasterLayer rasterLayer = new RasterLayer(rasterSource);

     map.getLayers().add(rasterLayer);

} catch (IllegalArgumentException iex) {

// handle exception

} catch (FileNotFoundException fe) {

// handle exception

} catch (RuntimeException re) { // handle exception }

and also:

FileRasterSource rasterSource = new FileRasterSource("k5521.ecw");

rasterSource.project(map.getSpatialReference());

RasterLayer rasterLayer = new RasterLayer(rasterSource);

map.getLayers().add(rasterLayer);

what am I doing wrong?

[RavindraSingh]

you can add these line before adding to the JMap. and then see.

StretchRenderer stretchRenderer = new StretchRenderer();

StdDevStretchParameters stretchParams = new StretchParameters.StdDevStretchParameters();

stretchParams.setStdDev(2.5f);

stretchRenderer .setStretchParameters(stretchParams);

RasterLayer rasterLayer = new RasterLayer(rasterSource);

rasterLayer.setRenderer(stretchRenderer );

rasterLayer.setName(fileName); // Here file name is the your raster file name. e.g.= "k5521.ecw".

map.getLayers().add(rasterLayer);

It should work.

[idozoar]

what is the "rasterSource" you mentioned on the fifth line of the code?

[RavindraSingh]

Yes,

e.g.

FileRasterSource rasterSource = new FileRasterSource(rasterPath);

[idozoar]

it doesn't work, here is the whole code, what am I getting wrong?

what needs to be the value in "rasterPath"? again: "k5221.ecw"?

FileRasterSource should have the full path of the .ecw file. So if your ecw file in under C:\GIS\data\

then change this

FileRasterSource rasterSource = new FileRasterSource("k5521.ecw");

to

FileRasterSource rasterSource = new FileRasterSource("C:\GIS\data\k5521.ecw");

[idozoar]

its still doesn't work.
I don't think it has anything to do with the full file path because the file is inside the folder of the project.

[SachinKanaujia]

As a good practice whenever in doubt always use the full path. Can you print the exception message you are getting?

I don't have a sample ecw file to test but it may well be a BUG. This method already has several issues. I dont know if they have added support for ECW for this method. Please check with ESRI support !!!

[idozoar]

I can send you a .ecw file if you'll write your email...
as far as I understood it suppose to support .ecw.
more than that- the full software support it for certain.

the exception I keep getting:

This raster format is actually not supported in the Java API.
