[Geoserver-devel] Grid Coverage Plugin

I am in the process of creating a new Grid Coverage plugin for Geoserver WCS so getCoverage can support a new file format. I've implemented the four interfaces (Format, GridCoverageReader, GridCoverageWriter and GridFormatFactorySpi) and also correctly set up the jar file.

When I select Config->Data->CoveragePlugins in the web admin, my plug-in appears on the list. When I come to create a new coverage plugin store, I fill in all the details (file location, etc) and when I click submit, I get this error message in the web admin,

Connection Parameters are invalid

and also this message in my console,

form connection params { } /C:/SummerWork/GeoServer1.3.0-WCS/server/geoserver/data/coverages/dummy_sample/bluemarble.jpg

Does anyone know what I've missed to have caused this error?

Don't worry about it now, I've managed to solve it. It was because I hadn't implemented the read method. Everything is working fine now. Cheers.
