JHPJHP,

A location with a ' gives an error (sample: 't hofke 1, Eindhoven)

Hi Little_man,

Thank you for posting your results.


That issue should have been fixed a few versions back, including numerous minor improvements and bug fixes.

Just in case, I recompiled the latest Windows examples; direct download available from my website.

JHPJHP,

Start location: t Hofke 1, eindhoven, programma gives location: 't Hofke 30, 5641 AH Eindhoven, Nederland (this is correct zipcode).
End location: eindhoven, Nederland, programma gives: Eindhoven, Nederland.

Pushing the green arrow, information will be saved in database.
Then double click in the database that shows the SplashWindow and after a while I get a black window

This looks like a typical insert problem in connection with string concatenation.

myValue = "'t Hofke"

"INSERT INTO myTable (myColumn) VALUES ('" + myValue + "')"

Solution: Try doubling the apostrophe before the insert.

myValue = "'t Hofke"
myValue = ReplaceString(myValue, "'", "''")

(I hope you can recognize the fat red apostrophes.)

Greetings ... Peter

Hi Little_man

The problem stems from Google Maps handling of some address' through some of its services.

Translating the address to latitude / longitude using an alternate Google Maps service seems to have fixed the problem.
- geolocation_autocomplete.pbi and geolocation_directions.pbi have been updated

Please test the updated examples to confirm that the problem has been resolved.

Hi Kiffi,

Thank you for your post.


Doubling a single-quote for SQL statements has already been written into the code; see Procedure DatabaseSetRow().

Problem has been resolved.

Updated (Windows):
- added a language window
- added map styles
- couple minor improvements

Language Window
Selecting a language will close the window, reloading the current map in that language.
No database record is created until the current map is refreshed or a new map is retrieved.

Map Styles
Multiple JSON files can be associated to each example.
MapType name is taken from the JSON file name.
- text between string symbols (eg. \styles\geolocation_two_points$Retro$.json)

Map styles can be created from the following link: https://mapstyle.withgoogle.com/
Here is a site with over 1500 preconfigured map styles: https://snazzymaps.com/

NOTE
After upgrading to PureBasic 5.71 beta 2 LTS, the full screen Procedure needed modifying due to some aspect ratio issues.
Earlier versions of PureBasic may experience problems in full screen mode due to the recent changes (untested).
