Package ilog.views.maps Description

This package contains the base classes to write map applications.

For an easy start with writing map applications with Perforce JViews, see

• the IlvMapLoader class which is in the ilog.views.maps.format package and provides an easy way to load map data.
• the ilog.views.maps.beans package which contains useful graphic components to display scale, north, coordinates, legend, etc.

You can read this paragraph to get a global picture of the ilog.views.maps package and its subpackages before you go to the description of the individual classes.

• ilog.views.maps.projection
  This package contains the classes required to handle map projections.
• ilog.views.maps.format
  This package contains the classes required to read map files. It contains a set of predefined readers, each one in its own subpackage of ilog.views.maps.format.
