Version of Google Maps in rich:gmap

xck3001 Apr 26, 2010 4:13 PM

Hello,

we use rich:gmap to display some geographic data, which works quite nice.

When including a KML with bit datasets, we have some problems with display errors (half or not displayed POIs). According to Google, this is a known issue in the current version of Maps., So, it seems we are forced to skip back to prior or to the recent version of Google Maps. As there is no "version" property in rich:gmap, am I right that this is not possible with Richfaces?

This would force us to use the standard, not RF-encapsulated Google Maps component.

Cheers,

Matthias

Side note: We are currently using 3.3.3.CR1. I just a few minutes ago moved to 3.3.3.Final; we will try to reproduce this problem there. Again, this is a Google Maps bug, not a RF bug, but it would force us to use another version of the Google Maps...

unfortunatelly Gmap script was not updated till release. And the next time it will be updated only for 4.x. So seems you have to switch to just external Gmap widget usage or to patch the component on your own as described at http://community.jboss.org/wiki/ContributingpatchtoRichFacesproject
