If you haven't found any information on the subject, it is probably because you're taking the wrong approach. Google Maps are designed for web applications, and although desktop applications are allowed, they are not the intended use. There are lots of different programming languages which you can use to write a desktop application, so it would be impractical to write tutorials for each and every one of them, just in case someone wants to include maps in their application. In general, in a desktop application you use some kind of browser control to hold the map, meaning that the application is a customized browser. How to use a browser control in Java, (if there is such thing), would be outside of the scope of this group. Reverse question: What would be a good reason to create a desktop application in Java instead of using the API as intended? -- Marcelo - http://maps.forum.nu -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
