why go through the trouble of fixing minor issues with mock geocoding when the bigger problem is that the geodb file only has 1 non-business location (the white house) and one business (Zachary's Pizza in 3 locations)
For challenge submissions, instead of the FixedMockGeocoder.java class, I think it will be better to just write a new MyMockGeocoder class with access to a richer set of (hardcoded) geodb data than the hardcoded data that comes with the SDK. Another alternative would be to use GmmGeocoder, but that code could fail ...if the glm/mmap server apis are discontinued this month (or temporarily suspended for maintenance reasons etc.) On Apr 12, 2:03 pm, marvin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've been frustrated for a while by the lack of support for proper > reverse geocoding - or at least, proper mock reverse geocoding.
