B4J Question GoogleMap - Set location from text address

[jmon]

Hello,

Is it possible to set the location of google maps from a text address (not long / lat).

Thank you.
Jmon.

Nevermind, I found a solution just using the webview:

wvMap.LoadUrl($"https://www.google.com/maps/place/eiffel+tower+paris"$)

Just replace eiffel tower paris with any location. You have to replace the spaces with a plus sign.

More universal:

Public Sub Map_Location_By_TextAddress(a_sTextAddress As String) As String
    Dim su As StringUtils
    Return $"https://www.google.com/maps/place/${su.EncodeUrl(a_sTextAddress, "UTF8")}"$
End Sub

End Sub

Excellent, thank you!
