FIRST OF ALL THANX FOR THE ANSWERS
my cadrg map is placed inside jar in directory data/rpf/
so such path i specify in my properties file
like this cadrgLayer1.paths=data/Rpf/
is there an error???
one more question I have due to the map provided by the
SimpleHttpImageServer does the server provide only chunks of data such
as frames of the map ?? I am asking to predict the maximum bandwitch.
I would like to avoid situations in such the client has problems
downloading the data.
and last but not least i would like to change the GUI look in the applet
like the overview window and the layer panel (use a jtree for example or
jtable) - please write some hints
