 Hello Deborah,
 
You will need to first convert from Double to double, then you can use the
converted values with DoublePoint().  Here is an example:
 
 
/**
   * Displays a point at the latitutde and longitude values specified.  
   *
   * @param argMap the mapJ object which will be displayed
   * @param argXCoord the x coordinate value specified (longitude)
   * @param argYCoord the y coordinate value specified (latitude)
   */
  private void displayLatLon(MapJ argMap, Double argXCoord, Double
argYCoord)
  {
    // convert from Double to double.
    double dXCoord = argXCoord.doubleValue();
    double dYCoord = argYCoord.doubleValue();
    // new point
    DoublePoint dp = new DoublePoint(dXCoord, dYCoord);
 
    etc....
  }

Hi all, 

I am trying to add a GPS position (W000.25.30,9,N38.29.42,1) on a map using
MapXtreme for java. I wanted to use 

dPoint = new DoublePoint(Latitude,Longitude); 

but DoublePoint() requires Latitude and Longitude to be of type Double. Has
anyone faced this kind of issue ? Does anyone know how to add a GPS position
on a map ?

Thanks 

Kind Regards 

Deborah
