RE: [flexcoders] Flex 2 and maps

2006-11-03 Thread Kelly












I actually just finished rebuilding the
Microsoft Virtual Earth control in Flex 2. ( http://local.live.com
)

Unfortunately I did it under NDA so I cant
let you use it.

If you want to see it  it will be
viewable with the launch of the new Pikeo application on Nov 7th. ( www.pikeo.com )

Its not quite perfect yet but I
only started building it 6 weeks ago. I will try to polish it some more before
the launch.



I will talk to the company and see if they
are willing to let me open source the component.

Dont get your hopes up though.



Also they have a contract with Microsoft
that makes it legal for them to use it.

You would most likely have to do the same.





A better option would probably be to lobby
Yahoo to hire me as a remote developer to help upgrade their current flex 1.5 maps
to flex 2. J



We chose Microsoft for a provider because
they had better satellite coverage of most of the world then either Yahoo or
Google.

maps











I have been struggling to find a clean way
to integrate mapping into 
a flex 2 app. I know you can use the legacy Yahoo Maps Api (Flex 
1.5 / AS2) and via a LocalConnection communicate with it, but this is 
a big hack. Does anyone know of a mapping component that supports 
Flex 2 / AS3?

Thanks,

Brian

Hi,

ESRI is working with Flex 2.  Their current shipping version is Flex
1.5, but Flex 2 very soon I think. 

This article might be a good start:
