Hi Alain, you example looks good, but I think it has a serious bug. The map lays over the flex application. So it covers the flex application.
Example: - open Google Maps in your explorer - klick on "About" in the top right corner - or another tab in your explorer - the content is always behind the map Maybe, the map should be integrated in something like a HTML frame (mx.controls.HTML / currently only AIR) for a better integration into the flex app. Best regards Marcus Fritze Am 17.01.2013 um 00:52 schrieb Alain Ekambi <jazzmatad...@gmail.com>: > Work is in progress to release it soon. > Here is a life demo : > > http://flex4j.appspot.com/#misc.maps.GoogleMaps > > Flex4j is build on top of Flash4j(http://emitrom.com/flash4j) which itself > is built on top of the Google Web Toolkit. > Because we leverage GWT it s pretty easy to integrate any JS based library. > Something you dont get with native ActionScript. > > > For the upcoming 3.1 release we added support for Google Maps.
