Upgrading Mapquest 5.3 to 6.0 (3)
OK, so some further research has yielded more results.
1. PointXY is now Point(flash version of Point)
2. GeoAddress and Address looks like it has become GeocoderLocation (you can load some of the same info over this item as your could the other two. I have still not been able to complete the build yet so I don’t know.)
3. Decluttering is a whole new ball game. I have not tackled this one yet, but it looks promising. I have been saving that one for later. I am not sure if i was using shape collections before. The new decluttering looks like it only does it per shape collection. You could at worse create one big shape collection and throw that one on the map.
4. I noticed a new Object Parcel. I am not sure what it is doing at this time.
I still am figuring out a couple more things but this seems to be some of the big things. I spent an hour or so just cleaning up all the old setters and getters from before into just setting the public variables.
I must stress how much I like their new GeoCoder Object. It is the way you used to use the Exec object. It is a cleaner use and will save me a class that I was using to setup the Exec for the send.
