Andy,
Fusion doesn't support that use-case right now although you might be
able to look at the MapMenu widget to see if that might fit your needs,
or you may be able to customize it to suit. The MapMenu supports loading
a list of Map definitions from a MapGuide folder resource, i.e point it
at a MapGuide Library://some/folder and it will enumerate all the
MapDefinition items and list them in the menu.
The other approach would be to modify Fusion to accept a 'mapResource'
URL parameter that would override the ResourceId pointer in a MapGroup,
in this case the <MapGroup><Map> element in AppDef would represent a
template.

Hi,
I'm trying to use Fusion on a new project and still wrapping my head
around everything. I have a an application with potentially hundreds
of map definitions in the MGOS repository. I would like ONE Fusion
ApplicationDefinition for the entire application.
From what I understand the map definition must be defined in the
ApplicationDefinition.xml file in the MapSet tag, MapGroup container,
Map tag. Further, the MapGroup ID is then referenced by the MapWidget.
To avoid having a huge and difficult to maintain ApplicationDefinition
file with all of my maps, what would be the best approach for my
needs? The map will be determined by the application at run-time
after the user logs in, and I need to then load the Fusion layout with
that map (a MGOS map resource). I see that the loadMap() method in
the Fusion command API will do what I need, but the map definition
must exist in the AppDef first.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
