There are also problems when it comes to placing that kind of 'components' (e.g. HTML overlay) into a scrollable container. If anyone figures out a solution for handling that case it would be an interesting thing.

Hallo Markus,

Thx for the inputs.
Like i said in my earlier post our main focus was to first get the
GoogleMaps API exported so that one can easely access it from Flash4j all
in Java.
Now that that s done we will focus on the Widget itself.

Be assured that we will fixed all the issues before the 3.1 release.

Regards,

Alain

Hi Alain,

you example looks good, but I think it has a serious bug. The map lays
over the flex application. So it covers the flex application.

Example:
- open Google Maps in your explorer
- klick on "About" in the top right corner
- or another tab in your explorer
- the content is always behind the map

Maybe, the map should be integrated in something like a HTML frame
(mx.controls.HTML / currently only AIR) for a better integration into the
flex app.

Best regards

Marcus Fritze

Work is in progress to release it soon.
Here is a life demo :

http://flex4j.appspot.com/#misc.maps.GoogleMaps

Flex4j is build on top of Flash4j(http://emitrom.com/flash4j) which
itself
is built on top of the Google Web Toolkit.
Because we leverage GWT it s pretty easy to integrate any JS based
library.
Something you dont get with native ActionScript.


For the upcoming 3.1 release we  added support for Google Maps. As you
can
see the integration is seamless. You can click on the buttons to see it
in
action.

For those willing to use Java we have a solution on how to integrate
the
Maps JS with Flex.
As a matter a fact we provide a 100%  binding of the Google Maps API.
I should be able to share some more details in a few.

Cheers,

   I'm going to guess that as long as you're using the Google API even
if
it's the JavaScript one you are fine.  Just as long as the data is
coming
through their API using your dev key.  However the illegal way would
be
to
scrap their websites or try to access the data directly without going
through their API.

This is making me confused. What exactly is illegal about using
external
interface to use Google apis? Google suggests migrating to their new
version. Migration to me implies its not banned.

Forgive my ignorance too, I do have a need for location api but I
have
not
gotten to it yet. Google is what I was assuming I would use.
Doesn't Google have a REST API that we could tap into anyhow ? Not
familiar
at all with what the Flex lib did

thanks

Huh?

If it would use the JS APIs, how would that be illegal?

It could be done but as I previously stated it would be illegal
beacuse
google prevents accessing the map data other than its personal
APIs

Can't we just replicate what they did using the Javascript
APIs?
