I've been reviewing the Maps API V3 and have generally been surprised
by the significant changes that have been put in place which at times
seem quite arbitrary. Some API continuity would be appreciated. For
example: gone are the status codes in favor of status strings. :-(
I'm particularly curious how we are to determine a geoAccuracy from a
response? Are we supposed to parse the existence of address blocks and
types strings etc? The geoAccuracy is extremely useful. If it is
indeed gone, how to determine it?
And I can't resist: why have identifying keys been eliminated?
Why:
"address_components": [ {
"long_name": "1600",
"short_name": "1600",
"types": [ "street_number" ]
}, {
"long_name": "Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"short_name": "Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"types": [ "route" ]
}
}]
in stead of:
"address_components": [ street_number:{
"long_name": "1600",
"short_name": "1600",
}, route:{
"long_name": "Amphitheatre Pkwy",
"short_name": "Amphitheatre Pkwy",
}
}]
I'm sorry for my slightly annoyed tone, but this approach is just
grrr.
Kind regards,
Marc
