[Users] How to add layers to LayerContainer?

[Adam Ratcliffe]

Typically the steps would be these:

1) Create an instance of OpenLayers.Map
2) Create a GeoExt.MapPanel instance, passing it a reference to the map you created in step 1)
3) Create an instance of GeoExt.tree.LayerContainer, setting it's "layerStore" config property to the "layers" property of the map panel created in step 2)

A GeoExt.data.LayerStore is implicitly created when you add the map to the map panel.  The layer store listens to the map's layer events and updates it's state accordingly therefore you can now add new layers to the map and nodes will be created for them by the tree panel which is bound to the layer store.

An example can be seen here: http://dev.geoext.org/trunk/geoext/examples/layercontainer.html
