Developing Server-Side Tiling

INDEX PREVIOUS NEXT

In The Tile Manager you see that the tile manager stores and retrieves static and dynamic layers. See Concepts for what is meant by static and dynamic layers in terms of tiling.

The list of dynamic layers is computed by the following method of the IlvManagerServletSupport class:

public IlvManagerLayer[] getDynamicLayers(HttpServletRequest request, 
IlvManagerView view)

The default implementation of this method classifies the layers according to the value returned by the IlvManagerView.getTripleBufferedLayerCount() method. If the layer index is greater or equal to this value, the layer is dynamic. (If not, it is a static layer.) You can override this method to determine which are the dynamic layers in a different way.
