Enum Constant Detail

LIGHTWEIGHT

public static final MapComponentType LIGHTWEIGHT

Indicates that MapView instance will be initialized as a lightweight (off-screen) component. In this mode Chromium engine renders web page content off-screen and Java component just displays rendering results as image using standard Java Graphics API. In this mode GPU acceleration in Chromium engine isn't used. As result, rendering performance isn't so good as with enabled GPU acceleration. It's recommended to configure MapView instance with this type in Java Swing/JavaFX applications where lightweight is the main requirements. For example, when transparent JPanel should be displayed over MapViewer component, or when MapView component is embedded into MapView or layered panels.

HEAVYWEIGHT

public static final MapComponentType HEAVYWEIGHT

Indicates that MapView instance will be initialized as a heavyweight component. Heavyweight components represents a native window embedded into Java frame. In this mode Chromium uses GPU acceleration to render web page content directly onto an embedded into Java frame window. Rendering performance in this case is the same as in Google Chrome. It's recommended to configure MapView instance with this type in Java applications where rendering performance is very critical (e.g. displaying video or WebGL content). Since MapView represents a native heavyweight window embedded into Java application's frame, it's not recommended to display lightweight Swing/JavaFX components over heavyweight MapView component. The heavyweight MapView component will be always displayed over lightweight Swing/JavaFX components.

Method Detail

values

public static MapComponentType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (MapComponentType c : MapComponentType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static MapComponentType valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
