Hi,
I have been thinking about extending the Location plugin by some history
functionality. I am now thinking about the best way to do this. My idea
was to implement it completely on the client side in about the following
way:
* store the current bbox during initializeResult() in an array in
locationState and
- check that the history does not grow beyond a certain size
(specified in ini-file)
- check that the same bbox is not stored consecutively
- some more integrity test and cleaning ...
<http://dict.leo.org/se?lp=ende&p=/Mn4k.&search=consecutive>* add two
buttons, like the pan- or fullExtent-buttons to the template
* handle the history buttons by issuing BboxLocationRequest
I would like to know, whether this would be a good way to realize a
history? One problem that I see with this approach is, that the View
Plugin stores the current history with a view, since (as far as I
understand it) the plugin stores/loads the whole locationState object.
Is there a possibility to load/store views without changing the history
array inside locationState? Maybe store the history independent of the
locationState object?
Regards,
Dirk
