The way you use JViews Maps depends on your requirements. If the map area is decided at run-time, you can use the API to read and style map data.
-
For importing map data during application execution, use the SDK components and user-interface elements:
-
Beans defining numerous GUI features.
-
Map Builder, a fully functional map preparation application, supplied with source code for you to customize and use in your own applications.
-
Numerous demos, once again supplied as source code, and focusing on discrete features.
-
An open API allowing full customization.
-
When a map area is known in advance, use the Map Builder to prepare it beforehand. JViews Maps provides a prepared map as output containing either the map description only or all of the map data packed in a single file. The prepared map can be called in the final application with just a single line of code.
