The InformationDelegator manages the display of information requested by Layers and other map components. It can bring up a web browser to display web pages and files, and pop up a message window to provide status information to the user. It also has a visible status window that contains a layer status indicator, and an information line that can display short messages.

InformationDelegators are added to layers, and the layer fires events through the InfoDisplayListener interface. The InformationDelegator has a method called listenToLayers() that lets you give it an array of layers, and it adds itself as a InfoDisplayListener to those layers.

The InformationDelegator lets you alter its behavior with property settings:

 # Make the status lights buttons that bring up layer palettes. infoDelegator.triggers=true # Show the layer status lights. infoDelegator.showLights=true # Show the text line for map object information infoDelegator.showInfoLine=true # Show the text line for coordinate information infoDelegator.showCoordsInfoLine=true

                Debug.output("OMDrawingToolLauncher: Something is not set:\n"
                        + sb.toString());


                MapHandler mapHandler = (MapHandler) getBeanContext();
                if (mapHandler != null) {
                    InformationDelegator id = (InformationDelegator) mapHandler.get("com.bbn.openmap.InformationDelegator");
                    if (id != null) {


                        id.displayMessage(i18n.get(OMDrawingToolLauncher.class,
                                "problem",
                                "Problem"),
                                i18n.get(OMDrawingToolLauncher.class,
                                        "problemCreatingGraphic",
                                        "Problem creating new graphic:\n")
