This massively reduces the number of temporary ol.TileCoord objects.
Previously an ol.TileCoord object was generated for every potentially
visible tile at the current zoom level and lower, every frame. This
commit eliminates all of those. Now new ol.TileCoord objects are only
allocated when a new tile is created.
Rendering vector tiles with mixed geometry types does not work
as expected, because the tile is created without the geometries
that need another rendering pass because of missing icons. This
was discovered by @bartvde when working on the KML parser, where
mixed geometry types are common.
This change fixes the issue by breaking out from rendering
entirely when renderFeaturesByGeometryType returns a deferred
state. In addition, there was a related bug because icons are
added to the cache regardless of its loaded state. This is also
fixed now.
The previous logic assumed that if there were any tiles to render, the dirty state should be false. The correct logic is to say that if we don't render during animation, dirty is true.
The color names are more intuitive. And if we want to support pattern strokes or fills, we'll need additional proerties to represent other pattern properties.
This avoids features being rendered multiple times when they
cross tile borders. Currently this makes the style-rules.html
example extremely slow. Fix for that to come in my next commit.
The RTree can easily maintain an additional index dimension,
by passing a type with each added item. Now instead of
maintaining an RTree for each geometry type, we have a single
RTree with a type filter. With this change, using the RTree
finally speeds up rendering as expected.
With this commit we register a change listener at a time when we are guaranteed that the listener will be called. In this was we don't need to remove listeners when the tile is dropped from the tile queue. And to avoid busy-polling between IDLE and LOADING we rely on the map to call requestRenderFrame when new tiles change to LOADING from IDLE.
We need a more flexible event system. We could have a VectorLayerEvent type and dispatch 'featuresadded' here. But listeners want features typically and perhaps extent. This won't be true for all vector layer events (suggesting a more specific VectorFeatureEvent type or something).
This change adds a lot of flexibility to working with tile
layers: Sources where the server projection or tile grid do not
matter can now be constructed without specifying a projection or
tile grid.
The tileUrlFunction/imageUrlFunction now also creates updated
URLs when the params of the layer change, so things like
mergeNewParams in ol2 will be possible.
A nice side effect of this whole change is that there is no more
duplicated code between tiled and single image WMS layers.
While I was at it, I also fixed a WMS 1.1.1 axis order issue
and incorrect STYLES params (STYLES=& instead of STYLES&).
