BaseClass

Masashi Katsumata edited this page Jul 11, 2014 · 11 revisions

The BaseClass constructor is guaranteed to be an empty function, and so you may inherit from BaseClass by simply writing MySubclass.prototype = new plugin.google.maps.BaseClass();. Unless otherwise noted, this is not true of other classes in the API, and inheriting from other classes in the API is not supported.

Map, Marker, Circle, Polyline, Polygon, Tile Overlay, Ground Overlay and Kml Overlay classes inherit BaseClass.

###Example First, create MyClass inherited BaseClass.

var MyClass = function() {
  plugin.google.maps.BaseClass.apply(this);
};
MyClass.prototype = new plugin.google.maps.BaseClass();

Second, create an instance of MyClass; "myObject". The myObject watches "BUTTON_CLICK" event.

var myObject = new MyClass();
myObject.addEventListener("BUTTON_CLICK", function(buttonId) {
  alert("BUTTON_CLICK: " + buttonId);
});

You can trigger your custom event using trigger.

var button = document.getElementById("button");
button.addEventListener("click", function() {
  myObject.trigger("BUTTON_CLICK", button.id);
});

addEventListener() and removeEventListener()

In order to watch an event, you need to add an event listener.

map.addEventListener(plugin.google.maps.event.MAP_CLICK, onMapClicked);

function onMapClicked(latLng) {
  var map = this;
  alert(latLng. toUrlValue());
}

Removing the event listener, you need to specify the listener function with the event name.

map.removeEventListener(plugin.google.maps.event.MAP_CLICK, onMapClicked);

If you want to remove all event listeners for the event, you can omit the listener.

map.removeEventListener(plugin.google.maps.event.MAP_CLICK);

Or, if you want to remove all event listeners, you can omit the parameters.

map.removeEventListener();

on() and off() are the same as addEventListener() and removeEventListener().

set() and get()

You can set your value for own purpose using set() method.

map.set("message", "Hello");

Then you can get the value.

alert(map.get("message"));
