GWT's hosted mode browser does not allow the use of Gears on the Linux or
Mac platforms.

The expectation is that GWT's hosted mode browsers for Linux and Mac will
be updated to allow the Gears plugin to be loaded.  Currently, GWT
Gears-enabled applications can only be debugged using GWT's hosted mode
browser on Windows.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Using version 1.1.4, run the HelloMaps sample on Safari for Mac OSX.  The
tiles fail to load.

I'd really like to see the methods in
com.google.gwt.maps.client.geocode.LocationCallback have the original
address in their parameters.  Looking at Geocoder.getLocations, this
shouldn't be too hard to do.  I was thinking of something like this:

From com.google.gwt.maps.client.geocode.Geocoder:

  public void getLocations(String address, final LocationCallback callback) {
    GeocoderImpl.impl.getLocations(jsoPeer, address, new LocationsCallback() {
      public void callback(Response response) {
        int statusCode = response.getStatus().getCode();
        if (statusCode == StatusCodes.SUCCESS) {
          JSList placemarkList = response.getPlacemarks();
          Placemark[] placemarks = new Placemark[placemarkList.size()];
          JsUtil.toArray(placemarkList, placemarks);
          callback.onSuccess(placemarks, address);
        } else {
          callback.onFailure(statusCode, address);
        }
      }
    });
  }

The RestoreStore class cannot capture URLs when used in GWT's hosted mode
browser on Windows.  This stems from not loading browser helper objects
from GWT's hosted mode browser on Windows.

Detailed description: Using the marker setVisible function in the Maps API
lib causes a Java exception.

TO demonstrate, modify OverlayDemo.java in HelloMaps to include these 3
lines in the marker creation loop:
      Marker marker = new Marker(point);
      map.addOverlay(marker);
      marker.setVisible(false);

Run it and pick "Overlays" from drop-down. You should see this error:

Perhaps a MapWidget should have some default height? Maybe 100%?

Currently if I have an explicitly sized panel which I add a MapWidget to,
there is no map visible (but, confusingly, the map controls are) because
the map is rendered at 0px height.

This behavior made me think the map is broken. Giving height some sane
default would make it easier for me to realize I should change the
dimensions according to my needs.

No way to construct InfoWindowContent from a DOM Element (which is very
useful for stitching in existing chunks of HTML).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download gwt-google-apis
2. Try out the info window samples in IE
3. Notice the bad info window rendering

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When using a strict doctype, info windows will render correctly in IE. In
quirks mode, they have funny lines and mismatched borders.


Fix: Add this to the beginning of HelloMaps.html
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

No way to open info window from a Marker (on par with
GMarker.openInfoWindow() in JS) without having reference to the Map  - need
to use map.getInfoWindow().open(marker, content)

This is a legitimate Google AJAX API so it seems that it should be part of
this library.  The question is whether or not we might want or need to
release it independtly of this project or at least at a faster rate.  If we
do it could be placed into another project or download.

Please provide any additional information below.
I'll look into the implementation interfaces to see if the correct Google
Maps API methods are being called.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Using gwt-google-apis version 1.1.3, run the AJAXSearch sample on Safari
2.0.4 on Mac OS X.  The browser will shut down.

MercatorProjection is a perfect example of this.  getWrapWidth(int) can return 
infinity/undefined in 
certain conditions.  As such, we should change the return type to use the Java 
boxed type.

We need to scrub the existing APIs for this type of problem.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download the latest distribution of gwt-google-apis (r41)
2. Try to launch the HelloMaps sample -shell/-compile scripts
3. Realise that they're pointing to
com.google.gwt.maps.sample.maps.MapsSample/MapsSample.html rather than
com.google.gwt.maps.sample.maps.HelloMaps

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected launch scripts to point to
com.google.gwt.maps.sample.maps.HelloMaps, but are pointing to
com.google.gwt.maps.sample.maps.MapsSample/MapsSample.html instead

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
GWT 1.4.60, gwt-google-apis-r41. This applies to the launch scripts for
each OS distribution (linux/mac/windows)

Please provide any additional information below.
I've included a patch below that corrects the paths in each of the -shell
and -compile scripts for each OS distribution.

Currently we have no tests for the Maps API.  Even though it is mostly
visual we should be able to create unit tests for the different non-UI
components.

We should switch the Maps and AJAX APIs to use the Google AJAX API Loader
instead of the direct load versions.

The options appear to be as follows:

1) Continue to use the direct loading scheme.  The question then becomes
when will this form of loading be deprecated?  What do we loose in
flexibility and elegance if we do this?

2) Use BobV's API loader wrapper classes.  A user would need to request
that the desired API be loaded and wait for the asynchronous load to
complete before calling any of the GALGWT that depends on the API.

3) Allow the API key to be specified in a module property that does impact
the number of permutations that the GWT compiler will generate.  This will
also require some mechanism to be able to deal with the asynchronous
loading used the AJAX API loader and a way to provide notification of
errors during loading.

I recommend that you merge the Google Maps API for GWT, found at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gwt/, into this project.  I use it and it
works great.  I'd love it if the GWT api version would come out at the same
time as the javascript version.

Thanks,
eric

Detailed description:
Need a mechanism to allow the LocalServer functionality to be used with
GWT's strongly-named files.  This impacts the generated JavaScript code
files as well as the image bundle files.

GWT generates a strongly-named, numeric, file name for each permutation of
GWT rebind decisions used by the application.  These strong names are not
known until after the GWT compiler finishes so a developer has no way of
knowing what it could be.  Even if a developer knew what the set of strong
names could be they would not be able to determine which one a particular
browser would use.

The motivating scenario is where a GWT application or module needs to be
cached by the LocalServer for offline use.

Workaround if you have one:
You can run a post GWT-compiler build process to generate a Gears manifest
file for you.  It could include all of the files in the GWT compiler's
output directory.  The downside is that all permutations will be included
in the manifest.

Alternatively, you can query the src attributes of the script elements once
the application has loaded to determine what strongly named files to cache.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Using version 1.1.4, run the HelloMaps sample on Safari 3 Beta for windows.
 The tiles show up but the application does not respond to changes in the
drop list of scenarios.

We should create a simple Getting Started Guide that walks through how to
create a GWT project that uses the library.

Even though the process for using the gwt-google-apis library may seem
fairly straight forward to those that are very familiar with GWT, it could
not hurt to enumerate the steps.

Detailed description: GEvent.trigger is not supported. It's a _very_ useful
function. More info in the reference:
http://www.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/reference.html#GEvent

The problem is that the MercatorProjection class does a  bind in its 
constructor which result in 
recursion.  Bind is not necessary in this case because no functions are 
actually exported.

We need to scrub the Maps API for this type of failure.  We need to be very 
careful about how we use 
JSIO.bind.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run the following snippet:
    WebSearch webSearch = new WebSearch();
    webSearch.addSearchListener(new SearchListener() {
      public void onSearchResult(Search search, Result result) {
        Window.alert(result.toString());
      }});
    webSearch.execute("Foo");

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect that Window alerts appear for every result.  Instead, I get:
"TypeError exception: Object doesn't support this property or method".

This happens because there is a typo in the Search class.  The
"setSearchCompleteCallbock" should be named "setSearchCompleteCallback". 
This typo causes the JSIO generator to write code to call the
"setSearchCompleteCallbock" method which does not exist in the underlying
JavaScript object.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Trunk is subversion as of 9/11

Please provide any additional information below.

Found in Release:
1.1.r41

Detailed description:
There are several classes where the use of Java 1.5 features such as
generics, would result in improved code.

Workaround if you have one:

Class Marker currently doesn't expose enabling/disabling dragging. The only
way I seem to be able to set this is by using a MarkerOptions object and
setting values there prior to Marker construction. Marker should expose
enableDragging()/disableDragging() or setDraggable(boolean) so this can be
done after construction, just as with native GMarker

steps to reproduce the problem
1. Create GWT eclipse project and application with the scripts included on
gwt Mac OS distribution
2. Import gwt-google-apis.jar (add entry on classpath and on
MyApplication.gwt.xml)
3. As the hosted browser on Mac OS doesn't support google gears yet, launch
the project compilation with the MyApplication-compile generated script

What is the expected output?
Compilation should succeed (normally)

What do you see instead?

Loading module 'com.sfeir.gearsGwtTest'
   Loading inherited module 'com.google.gwt.gears.Gears'
      [ERROR] Unable to find 'com/google/gwt/gears/Gears.gwt.xml' on your
classpath; could be a typo, or maybe you forgot to include a classpath
entry for source?
   [ERROR] Line 6: Unexpected exception while processing element 'inherits'
com.google.gwt.core.ext.UnableToCompleteException: (see previous log entries)
...
...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
latest gwt 1.4 RC on Mac OS X 10.4.10

Please provide any additional information below.
I expected this to work on windows, but the compiler script also fails,
even though the "Compile/browse" button of the hosted browser successfully
compiles my application. (As a side note, I tried running the application
on the hosted browser, but "LocalServer local = new LocalServer()" throws
GearsException with the following trace:
com.google.gwt.gears.core.client.GearsException: JavaScript TypeError
exception: Null value
    at com.google.gwt.gears.core.client.impl.GearsImpl.create(GearsImpl.java:77)
    at

    at com.sfeir.client.gearsGwtTest.onModuleLoad(gearsGwtTest.java:24)
...
...
)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Run the HelloMaps sample for gwt-google-apis version 1.1.3 and select
"Opening an Info Window" from the drop down list.  You will see roughly a
one pixel wide bleed through from the back ground image on the left and top
borders.

Detailed description:
Supply the onDrag() listeners with the marker that has been dragged.
The Mapitz package uses a GMarkerEventDragListener interface to separate 
these events from Map drag events and this works well in that package.

Enchancement Request: Add Google Base API Support
API support

The Database support should allow parameters to be set individually using 
actual java objects for 
each parameter something like:

Database db = new Database("some.Database");
Statement st = db.createStatement("SELECT * FROM sometable WHERE entrydate > ? 
AND id > ? 
AND  entrytype = ?");
st.setDate(0, someDate);
st.setInteger(1, 15);
st.setString(2, "user");
ResultSet rs = st.execute();
...
rs.close();

This could be accomplished by having a Statement interface that contains the 
setter methods 
and an execute method. Hide the actual implementation in the database class, 
and have the 
setters individually add parameters to a Javascript array that will eventually 
be sent to the 
underlying execute() function in Gears.

See attached patch.

Class MapWidget should probably expose closeInfoWindow() - the workaround
for now seems to be map.getInfoWindow().close() but this creates a new
instance of InfoWindow every time.

Port back-half code from gwt-feed-reader project and add user façade classes.

Add access to GMap2.fromLatLngToDivPixel(latlng)

Return type is a js pixel obj so I'm not sure what you want to do with 
that.

Currently, we have no unit tests for the non-visual parts of the AJAX
Search APIs.  We need to create these before the RC.
