Changing basemap from service to tile cache does not work

JoeHershman

I have a situation where we have an offline tile cache used for a basemap for imagery. We also want to be able to use the online streets basemap if connected. This seems straightforward, however, does not work. If I initially load a tiles layer as basemap I am unable to switch the basemap to a basemap that uses service layers and vice-versa.

So if I initially load tiles:

<SPAN class="keyword token">var</SPAN> tileCache <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">TileCache</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="string token">@"D:\Mobile\Imagery\Layers"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>
ArcGISTiledLayer imageLayer <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">ArcGISTiledLayer</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>tileCache<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>
map <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">Esri<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>ArcGISRuntime<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Mapping<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Map</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">Basemap</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>imageLayer<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN> InitialViewpoint <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">Viewpoint</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>extent<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN>‍‍‍<SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

The offline cache loads correctly. However, when I try to switch the reference to a service based basemap

RuntimeControls<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>MapView<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Map<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Basemap <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> Basemap<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">CreateStreets</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

The base map simply disappears (in the above RuntimeControls is used to share the MapView across the application.

If instead of the first code block I start with:

map <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">Esri<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>ArcGISRuntime<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Mapping<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>Map</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>Basemap<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN><SPAN class="token function">CreateImageryWithLabelsVector</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">{</SPAN> InitialViewpoint <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> <SPAN class="keyword token">new</SPAN> <SPAN class="token class-name">Viewpoint</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>extent<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN> <SPAN class="punctuation token">}</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">;</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN>‍</SPAN></SPAN>

Switching basemaps in the second block works fine. The opposite behavior is also observed. If I initially start with a Streets layer for basemap, I am unable to switch the basemap to the TileCache. However, when I switch back to the TileCache after the failed attempt to change to streets the basemap is displayed.

The only thing that works is to create a new Map instance. The problem with this is the OperationalLayers are lost. I tried a workaround to see if I can recreate the map. Along these lines

This, though, throws an exception:

Esri.ArcGISRuntime.ArcGISRuntimeException was unhandled
ErrorCode=24
HResult=-2146233088
Message=Object already owned.: Already owned.
Source=Esri.ArcGISRuntime

I put the line setting the map to null in there hoping it would release the layer ownership, I even tried to force a garbage collection to see if that would release it, but no luck.

Any thoughts? This is a pretty critical aspect to our application users need to be able to see a streets map when they are connected

Thanks

Can you share a little app that reproduces this, so we can address it or at least provide you with a workaround?

Setting the map to null, doesn't mean the layer isn't still associated with that map any longer. It just means you removed one reference to the map instance. You'd have to move the layer out of the old map, before inserting it into a new map.

I find the solution I documented above to be a lot of code for something I think should be pretty simple. It is also unstable and at times switching basemaps will freeze. The best fix would be to have basemaps in the same projection, but in our case that is not possible. We have purchased tile imagery that is delivered only in the local projection, and would like to also be able to use online basemaps, only available in specific projections

I had the identical error when migrating an app from 10.2.5 to the 100.2 SDK. Apparently a layer already owned by the operationalLayers of an AGSMap cannot be added to the operationalLayers of another AGSMap, and MMPKs provide layers only within a loaded AGSMap.

I previously used two .geodatabase files, one for stable offline basemap data that is never synced, and another with more volatile operational layers that can be synced by many users at any time. I encountered this error after migrating my offline basemap data to be loaded from a mobile map package. I resolved the error by making my own array variable holding the layers and then clearing them from the AGSMobileMapPackage.maps[0].operationalLayers.

I have requested that the SDK docs be updated to mention restrictions on access to layers owned by another AGSMap. As an aside, I ran into this working with the iOS SDK, not the .Net SDK. I suspect this will be common across platforms.

I hope this helps anyone else with this problem.

The former would seem to be the issue. The tile cache is projected into the local reference system used by the company. This is purchased product will have to look into if we can get a copy in 3857. The latter is turned out to be a little more complicated than it would seem. I cannot just set another variable to Map.OperationalLayers because this is just a pointer to the same LayerCollection so calling :Clear clears out the other variable.

I ended up this this, which does seem to be working:

This is giving the TOC control in the toolkit some fits and throws an unhandled exceptions in ObservableLayerContentList trying to refresh the list but for now that is a problem for another day.

Hi Joe,

Basemap switching can be a struggle. I notice two things here.

1) If the spatial references of the offline TileCache and the online basemap are not the same you won't be able to switch between them using the same map - I think this might be what you're seeing (can you confirm?). Once Map.SpatialReference is established you can't change it and most basemap tiles cannot be reprojected on the fly. To fix this you either need to find offline and online basemaps with the same spatial reference or swap out the map as you suggest.

2) Regarding the operational layer cloning, a layer can only be owned by one collection. So you need to remove the layer from the original map's layer collection before adding it to the new one. I'm not sure why setting 'Map = null' and forcing GC didn't work, but you should be able to call Map.OperationalLayers.Clear() to clear out the original map's layer collection which should free up the layers so they can be added to the new map.

I hope that helps, let us know if it works.
