StreamLayer

[TomPaschke]

Hi all,

I have a problem creating a streamlayer from a web socket output using the JavaScript API 3.7.

The demo from the tutorial "Working with Web Sockets" using JS API 3.5 is working fine but I didn't manage to transfer it to the 3.7 version.

The 3.7 sample script (https://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jssamples/layers_streamlayer.html) is not working as well. Hence, I wonder if you have a working sample of a stream layer using JS API 3.7?

Thank you.

Best,
Thomas

Thomas,

At version 3.7 of the javascript api, the message event changed.  The event now receives an array of raw features instead of a Graphic. This was done to allow a developer to intercept a message from the websocket connection before the message got converted to a graphic and added to the map.  To get the Graphic that was added to the map, a developer should handle the graphic-add event on the layer.

I've attached the updated sample; the change is on line 164. The updated sample will be included with the next documentation updates.
