I can able to show one location using co ordinates or longtitude and latitude but i dont know how to show more than one location in the blackberry MapField.If is it possible pls share with me how to do this..
Same way as How to show our own icon in BlackBerry Map?.
Pass an array of Coordinates into custom MapField, define a bitmap for location point and paint it for each Coordinate in custom MapField paint() method.
Remember to zoom in/out CustomMapField for best fit of all location points.
Lets display Liverpool Sheffield and London with custom bitmap icons (yellow circle with black border). Code for custom MapField:
class MultyMapField extends MapField {
Coordinates[] mPoints = new Coordinates[0];
Bitmap mPoint;
Bitmap mPointsBitmap;
XYRect mDest;
XYRect[] mPointDest;
public void addCoordinates(Coordinates coordinates) {
Arrays.add(mPoints, coordinates);
zoomToFitPoints();
repaintPoints();
}
protected void zoomToFitPoints() {
// zoom to max
setZoom(getMaxZoom());
// get pixels of all points
int minLeft = getWidth();
int minUp = getHeight();
int maxRight = 0;
int maxDown = 0;
Coordinates minLeftCoordinates = null;
Coordinates minUpCoordinates = null;
Coordinates maxRightCoordinates = null;
Coordinates maxDownCoordinates = null;
for (int i = 0; i < mPoints.length; i++) {
XYPoint point = new XYPoint();
convertWorldToField(mPoints[i], point);
if (point.x <= minLeft) {
minLeft = point.x;
minLeftCoordinates = mPoints[i];
}
if (point.x >= maxRight) {
maxRight = point.x;
maxRightCoordinates = mPoints[i];
}
if (point.y <= minUp) {
minUp = point.y;
minUpCoordinates = mPoints[i];
}
if (point.y >= maxDown) {
maxDown = point.y;
maxDownCoordinates = mPoints[i];
}
}
double moveToLat = maxDownCoordinates.getLatitude()
+ (minUpCoordinates.getLatitude() - maxDownCoordinates
.getLatitude()) / 2;
double moveToLong = minLeftCoordinates.getLongitude()
+ (maxRightCoordinates.getLongitude() - minLeftCoordinates
.getLongitude()) / 2;
Coordinates moveTo = new Coordinates(moveToLat, moveToLong, 0);
moveTo(moveTo);
// zoom to min left up, max right down pixels + 1
int zoom = getZoom();
boolean outOfBounds = false;
while (!outOfBounds && zoom > getMinZoom()) {
zoom--;
setZoom(zoom);
XYPoint point = new XYPoint();
try {
convertWorldToField(minLeftCoordinates, point);
if (point.x < 0)
outOfBounds = true;
convertWorldToField(minUpCoordinates, point);
if (point.y < 0)
outOfBounds = true;
convertWorldToField(maxRightCoordinates, point);
if (point.x > getWidth())
outOfBounds = true;
convertWorldToField(maxDownCoordinates, point);
if (point.y > getHeight())
outOfBounds = true;
} catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
outOfBounds = true;
}
}
zoom++;
setZoom(zoom);
}
protected void repaintPoints() {
mPointsBitmap = new Bitmap(getWidth(), getHeight());
mPointsBitmap.createAlpha(Bitmap.ALPHA_BITDEPTH_8BPP);
mDest = new XYRect(0, 0, mPointsBitmap.getWidth(), mPointsBitmap
.getHeight());
Graphics g = new Graphics(mPointsBitmap);
if (null != mPoint) {
mPointDest = new XYRect[mPoints.length];
for (int i = 0; i < mPoints.length; i++) {
if (null == mPointDest[i]) {
XYPoint fieldOut = new XYPoint();
convertWorldToField(mPoints[i], fieldOut);
int imgW = mPoint.getWidth();
int imgH = mPoint.getHeight();
mPointDest[i] = new XYRect(fieldOut.x - imgW / 2,
fieldOut.y - imgH, imgW, imgH);
}
g.drawBitmap(mPointDest[i], mPoint, 0, 0);
}
}
}
protected void paint(Graphics graphics) {
super.paint(graphics);
if (null != mPointsBitmap) {
graphics.setGlobalAlpha(100);
graphics.drawBitmap(mDest, mPointsBitmap, 0, 0);
}
}
}
Sample of use:
class Scr extends MainScreen {
// test coordinates:
// London
// 51.507778, -0.128056
Coordinates mLondonC = new Coordinates(51.507778, -0.128056, 0);
// Liverpool
// 53.4, -2.983333
Coordinates mLiverpoolC = new Coordinates(53.4, -2.983333, 0);
// Sheffield
// 53.385833, -1.469444
Coordinates mSheffieldC = new Coordinates(53.385833, -1.469444, 0);
MultyMapField mMultyMapField;
public Scr() {
add(mMultyMapField = new MultyMapField());
mMultyMapField.mPoint = createPointBitmap();
}
protected void onUiEngineAttached(boolean attached) {
super.onUiEngineAttached(attached);
if (attached) {
mMultyMapField.addCoordinates(mLondonC);
mMultyMapField.addCoordinates(mLiverpoolC);
mMultyMapField.addCoordinates(mSheffieldC);
}
}
private Bitmap createPointBitmap() {
int r = 10;
Bitmap result = new Bitmap(2 * r, 2 * r);
result.createAlpha(Bitmap.ALPHA_BITDEPTH_8BPP);
Graphics g = new Graphics(result);
g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.fillEllipse(r, r, 2 * r, r, r, 2 * r, 0, 360);
g.setColor(Color.YELLOW);
g.fillEllipse(r, r, r + (r - 2), r, r, r + (r - 2), 0, 360);
return result;
}
