some developer questions

== How to handle the BeanTools error message ==

What to do if the following warning comes up and jump does not start:
''
JUMP: Warning: Extensions directory does not exist:''

Solution: You need to copy the BeanTools folder from the distribution to your plugin folder location. Then OJ should start up sufficiently.

== How to handle Log4j Warning ==

If you start OpenJump in your IDE the following error may appear:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.vividsolutions.jump.I18N).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

To solve the problem you need to find the file ''log4j.xml'' and set in VM arguments the path:

e.g.:
-Dlog4j.configuration=file:D:///develop/eclwork/openjumpetc/etc/log4j.xml

== Defining the Menu Order ==

When I keep adding new menu items by using PlugIns, it seems like the
new menu items are displayed in the their loading sequence. Is there
any way I can instruct JUMP to sort and display them in alphabetic
order?

'''answer:'''

* you are right - JUMP /OpenJUMP sorts the menu items by load order.
* no - you can not order them by alphabet
* but - you can define the position using the additional _pos:no_ sequence

example:

context.getFeatureInstaller().addMainMenuItemWithJava14Fix(
this,
new String[] {MenuNames.VIEW},
"Test Function"+"{pos:14}",
false,
null,
null);

== Setting line colors for a layer ==

layer.getBasicStyle().setLineColor(Color.red);
layer.fireAppearanceChanged();
