The panckoucke library defines the PanckouckeContext that gives you access to the main features panckoucke offers. This includes access to the ModelProvider, the StoreManager, the Notification-, Representation- and GestaltRegistry and to the available Abstractors and Renderers.

To get the PanckouckeContext you have to instantiate a ContextFactory and call one of the createContext(...)-methods. The methods differ from what resource the context is build of, and allows you to supply your own context definition. If you do not supply a source, the default context description is used.

   	
  try {
    // instantiate a factory
    ContextFactory f = new ContextFactoryImpl();
    
    // get the default context
    PanckouckeContext ctx =  f.createContext();
    
    // get the main objects, 
    // ... the StoreManager
    StoreManager storeManager = ctx.getStoreManager();
            
    // ... the ModelProvider
    ModelProvider modelProvider = ctx.getModelProvider();
            
    // ... etc.      
    
  }
  catch (ContextException e) {
    throw e; // stop further processing.
  }
