[Users] Layers management with layerstore, layerrecord and layerreader

[gbrun]

Hi everybody!

I'm working about layers management but I'm a little bit confused!

What I want to do (about the functionalities, not about the design):
http://map.geoportail.lu/?lang=fr

The principle: the main div should contain the map. On the left, I want to  
display a "layers catalog" (with a tree), which may contain all the layers  
provided by my personal GeoServer. Then, the user might have the option to  
choose into this catalog the layers he wants to display inside the map.  
Opacity and layers order should also be managed by this "layer manager".

The point is that I actually don't understand how the layerstore, the  
layerrecord and the layerreader work together! I can synchronize the  
layerstore with a map but, in this case, I already must display the layers  
in my map. That's not what I Want to do! I want to manage separately the  
layers and the map. Layers must be created, then added to the catalog and  
finally displayed in the map when they are selected.

Did everyone work about this kind of situation in the past? A little help  
would be really nice for me!

Have a nice day!

Geoffrey
