Class TopcatExtApp

java.lang.Object

uk.ac.starlink.topcat.TopcatExtApp

All Implemented Interfaces:

cds.tools.ExtApp

public class TopcatExtApp
extends Object
implements cds.tools.ExtApp

ExtApp implementation for TOPCAT. This is the interface via which Aladin talks to external applications. Aladin's model (i.e. the VOPlot model) of what an external application is expected to look like is not quite the same as TOPCAT's, so the methods don't all do exactly what the interface says they should, but it should be enough to implement useful communication.
