Hi,
I'm trying to finally commit our GoePoint entities related modelling. For that, I need to introduce the Google Map API key concept
(a key corresponding to an URL). I previsously suggested general.properties. But maybe an entity like the one below would be more
convenient in case the user would have to deal with more than an handle of URLs
<entity entity-name="GoogleMapApiKey" package-name="org.ofbiz.common.geo"
default-resource-name="CommonEntityLabels"
title="Google Map API key">
<field name="UrlId" type="id"></field>
<field name="ApiKey" type="long-varchar"></field><!-- As generated from UrlId at
http://code.google.com/intl/fr/apis/maps/signup.html, note that it works for http://localhost !-->
<prim-key field="UrlId"/>
</entity>
What do you think ?
Thanks
Jacques

This is related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1923
I don't know for Yahoo and other, but I guess it's the same than for Google.
You need a key to use their Map API. For Google this
key is related to the domain used and allow to use the API only on this domain.
So we need to store this information somewhere. I
think about general.properties
