Multiple Instances of the Yahoo Map- Part II

Hi,

Few days back i was trying to achieve the task of having multiple instance of yahoo map in an application;

I got the dirty workaround to this :(

What i have done is :

Create an actionscript class that extend the YahooMapService class.

Create an instance of the class in a base state of the Flex Application file

Create a view stack with different views in this application file and each of the component that you are using in side the view stack must have a load map method that accepts the map object.

This method will load this map object in the container using the addChild method of the container.

One strange thing that i have noticed is every time you load the component in the view stack you have to make the yahoo map object null.

I hope this helps!

Cheers,

Anupam

P.S: If somebody have the better solution to this plz provide the ideas here.

    I can’t quite get this to work. Can you please explain “One strange thing that i have noticed is every time you load the component in the view stack you have to make the yahoo map object null.”? Do you create a new instance of the yahoo map object each time you call the load map method in the component?

    Thanks!

    I couldn’t understand some parts of this article o.us poetry, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
