net.rim.device.api.lbs
Class MapField

java.lang.Object
  extended by net.rim.device.api.ui.Field
      extended by net.rim.device.api.lbs.MapField

public class MapField
extends Field

Map field renders a map using the current mapping service.

There are three basic ways to navigate the MapField:

     move(int int) - move the map by a certain number of pixels.
     moveTo(Coordinates) - move the map to the location specified by a Coordinate object.
     moveTo(int int) - move the map to the specified latitude and longitude.

And there are two basic ways to change the currently displayed view:

     setRotation(int) - rotate the current view.
     setZoom(int) - change the zoom level of the current view.

Note: in any conversion or navigation (move) methods, world coordinates are used whereby the valid ranges for latitude values are inclusive for -9000000 to 9000000, and; longitude values are inclusive for -18000000 to 18000000. Methods using WGS84 coordinates become converted to world coordinates are subject to this validation.

layout

protected void layout(int width,
                      int height)
Description copied from class: Field
Lays out field contents.

This method is abstract; any class that extends Field must implement this method appropriate to its needs.

Invoked after the screen has been created, or when system parameters change (for example, after a system font change). Field.getExtent() will return a valid value after this method is invoked. Implementations of this method must invoke Field.setExtent(int, int) with the size used by the field.

During this call, Field.setExtent(int, int) must be called with parameters such that both width and height are between 0 and the values passed into this function for the Manager to be able to position this Field properly.

Fields may cache system attributes for efficiency (such as the current system font); however, they cannot depend on these attributes remaining unchanged. When one of these attributes changes, a message event is sent to that effect: in these cases, this method refetch and cache these attributes.

Specified by:
layout in class Field
Parameters:
width - Amount of available horizontal space.
height - Amount of available vertical space.
See Also:
Field.layout(int, int)
