Re: [geowebcache-users] GeoWebCache directory/file name structure

[Arne K. <ar...@ti...>]

Hi,

remember that although you only have to rewrite one file, you should 
make a complete BlobStore implementation so that you can use Spring to 
plug it in. Take 20 minutes to set up Eclipse so you can run it in a 
debugger and see for yourself.

prefix: Basepath provided by the parent FileBlobStore, e.g. 
/var/lib/geowebcache/tiles
gridSetId: <name> of the gridSet element in geowebcache.xml
parameters_id: Only if you use modifiable parameters (you don't),  a 
combination keya=value&keyb=othervalue will be represented by some 
integer value. -1L if not applicable
x: x-index in the cartesian plane of tiles, whether that's northing or 
something else depends on the SRS

I left OpenGeo back in February, but Gabriel would know whether there 
are AMI plans for the suite.
