Faster tile loading
- Logi sisse või registreeri et postitada kommentaare
Hi
I am using yahoo india map and bing aerial map by customizing yahoo example that came with library. I am using the following to get bing aerial map
bingMap = new QKMap("Microsoft",
"http://ecn.t2.tiles.virtualearth.net/tiles/h", 256,
1,17, ".jpeg?g=321&mkt=en-us");
mapDisplay.setMap(bingMap);
However, in my phone (nokia 5800) bing aerial seem to load too slow and sometimes yahoo india map too. I donot use much threads except one for GPS and one for custom zoom indicator. So in order to have faster tile loading what should be done. MGMaps seem to be loading much faster.
Any cache options to be set or used? I assumed lib itself takes care of that internally. If they have to be explicitly used can you provide a brief overvew on how to use it.

Library handles caching in RMS. See some general info about it from http://www.nutiteq.com/content/blackberry-rmscache-problem . Note that RMS cache index is written if you call stopMapping method of MapComponent. If you do not do it properly, then the cache just does not work. Maybe this is your issue
For instance, while app starts, it can get tiles immediately from local cache stored during previous exit of the application.. so that, user will not have to stare on blank screen waiting for the tiles,.. at the same time, in background, app can fetch current location's tiles and once ready can show them..
also, how to manage threads so that mapcomponent's threads are unharmed and engaged fully to bring tiles faster in shortest time possible..
