RE: [OpenMap Users] Adding MouseEvent to OMGraphics Object

Ok, I think I get how to use MapMouseInterpreter. Assumes your layer extends OMGraphicHandlerLayer and you're using MapHandler:

1. Make a class that extends StandardMapMouseInterpreter
1A. In this class, override the getMouseModeServiceList() function with something like this:

        public String[] getMouseModeServiceList()
        {
                return new String[] { NavMouseMode.modeID };
        }

You can alter this based on what modes you want your interpreter to respond to.

1B. Override any of the MapMouseInterpreter functions you want to use (mouseOver, mouseOut, etc.)

2. In your layer class:
2A. Create an instance of your class from step 1
2B. DO NOT Override the getMapMouseListener function
2C. Somewhere in the class, call setMouseEventInterpreter(<instance of your mouse int class>);

3. Add to your MapHandler a mouse mode that corresponds to what you specified in 1A. If you specified NavMouseMode.modeID, then you want to do:

mapHnd.add(new NavMouseMode());

That's what I've learned from the glory of backwards debugging with the CodeGuide IDE :-)

Have a nice weekene, everyone.
