I'm using the Google Maps API to build a map full of markers, but I want one marker to stand out from the others. The simplest thing to do, I think, would be to change the color of the marker to blue, instead of red. Is this a simple thing to do or do I have to create a whole new icon somehow? If I do have to create a new icon, what's the easiest way to do that?
We are working on a project where we have to implement the Google Visualization API in VB.
We are having problems with finding relevant information.
We can find loads of java. Please let us know. Thank you.
Hi guys,
I'm just writing an App for displaying the route between two coords (lat, long) in google maps view.
Displaying an single coord (even with a marker) works fine, but how to do this with 2 ones and the route between them?
I must admit that I'm quite new to Android and the maps-API...
I want to extract the latitude and longitude of a set of about 50-100 pins in a Google maps web page. I don't control the page and I don't need to do it more than once so I'm looking for something quick and dirty. I've got FireFox with FireBug as well as Chrome and all I need is something that's easier than re typing all the numbers.
i wonder what language Larry Page and Sergey Brin wrote google with?
not the languages that are used today, but for the version launched from their dorm.
thanks
I don't have a cell phone, but Google App Engine needs an SMS message to verify the account. Is there another way to complete the registration?
I'm surprised they don't use a Gmail account to do this.
We are trying to develop a company specific tracking software but not interested in Google or Piwik. Essentially we would have a JavaScript tracking code also. The data that it would capture, would that be best suited for traditional RDMS or can we get a NO SQL solution ?
Any thoughts or ideas welcome.

Starting a new project on Google code offers a choice of several licenses:
Apache License 2.0
Artistic License/GPL
Eclipse Public License
GPL v2/v3

Which license do you choose, ans why? I'm also interested in opinions which license is the least restrictive license for commercial users, ie. allow commercial use of the code w/o restrictions.
Is anyone aware of a publicly available Maven repository that contains the Google App Engine 1.3.1 JAR's? I've been using the maven-gae-plugin repository, but it's not updated yet. It looks like the JAR's on the central Maven repository are even older.
EDIT: It looks like Cletus's answer below has most of the JAR's, but not all of them. For example, the datanucleus-appengine-1.0.5.final.jar isn't available.
Is it possible to override methids for db.Model in Google App Engine?
I want to declare beforeSave, afterSave methods, etc.. to create automatic tagging system.
I know there are hooks, but it seems to me a wrong way to solve this issue :)
Thanks!
I'm trying to access an object that is linked to by a db.ReferenceProperty in Google app engine. here's the model's code:
class InquiryQuestion(db.Model):
inquiry_ref = db.ReferenceProperty(reference_class=GiftInquiry, required=True, collection_name="inquiry_ref")
And I am trying to access it in the following way:
linkedObject = question.inquiry_ref
and then
linkedKey = linkedObject.key
but it's not working. Can anyone please help?
Since there are 1500+ questions for google-app-engine, I was wondering:
what are people actually using it for?
are they doing something for their companies or startups?
are they just playing around with it because "the cloud is cool"?
are they using it because it's the "java free hosting"?
(answers from actual GAE users are preferable, but logical assumptions from others are welcome)
Update: I was asking (as tagged) about the Java aspect of GAE.
I have a page that Google Chrome insists on thinking is in French.
Here's a snapshot of it:
http://yootles.com/outbox/overcleverchrome.html
Note that I'm including a meta http-equiv tag to tell it that it's in fact in English:
<meta http-equiv="Content-language" content="en">
But it doesn't help.
Is there anything else I can do to prevent this?
Hi,
How can I pick a random place from anywhere in the world (but not in sea obviously) using some Service like Yahoo Geo, YQL, Google maps or something like that??
Thanks!

I'm trying to build a REST API on top of django running on Google AppEngine.
Is there a FW with similar offering to piston (or a piston fork?) that can run on AppEngine models rather than on django's models?
I'm working on a website that needs google maps, and testing is being a bitch because refreshing the page very often fails (hangs endlessly) so I need to go to a different page and come back in order to test the new version of the code. I have noticed that refreshing the page only fails on pages with maps, so I'm guessing these are related. Does anyone have a clue?
I have a dynamic php website which index only has around 800 errors according to the w3 validator online.
I have tried checking major websites like ebay, stackoverflow and others also, all with around 400 errors.
So my first thought is, what good is that validator when it always displays errors?
Secondly, will the errors affect my SERP ranking? ie, will me fixing these errors as good as I can increase my Google search position?
Thanks
If I call new Date() it will get the current time for the machine my app is running on.
I'm assuming that the machines on the Google App Engine do not all have their time synchronized.
Is there a way to get a time that would be consistent across instances of my app that may be running on different machines?
