map.AddShape VEException.name TypeError by maluc on 24 Sep 08 @ 15:42:00 UTC

hello

On the onLoadMap event of my map I call the following function:

function AddShape()

{

alert("inside addshape");

try{

var shape = null;

var c1Shape = null;

var c2Shape = null;

var c3Shape = null;

var c4Shape = null;

var cornerOne = new VELatLong(45.01188,-111.06687);

var cornerTwo = new VELatLong(45.01534,-104.06324);

var cornerThree = new VELatLong(41.01929,-104.06);

var cornerFour = new VELatLong(41.003,-111.05878);

// Create pushpins at each corner

c1Shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, cornerOne);

c2Shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, cornerTwo);

c3Shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, cornerThree);

c4Shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, cornerFour);

// Create the VEShape object and assign parameters.

var points = new Array(cornerOne, cornerTwo, cornerThree, cornerFour);

shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Polygon, points);

shape.SetLineWidth(3);

shape.SetLineColor(new VEColor(0,150,100,1.0));

shape.SetFillColor(new VEColor(0,150,100,0.5));

// Add the shapes to the map

map.AddShape(shape);

map.AddShape(c1Shape);

map.AddShape(c2Shape);

map.AddShape(c3Shape);

map.AddShape(c4Shape);

// Set the map view to the same points used by the shape.

map.SetMapView(points);

}

catch(err){alert("error adding shape: " + err.description + " name: " + err.name + " source: " + err.source + " message: " + err.message);}

}

and the following exception is caught:

name: TypeError

source: undefined

message: the object does not support this property or method

Does anyone know why this happens and how I can fix it?

Thanks
