[mapguide-users] Fusion - one AppDef many maps best approach?

[Andy Morsell]

Hi,
I'm trying to use Fusion on a new project and still wrapping my head around
everything.  I have a an application with potentially hundreds of map
definitions in the MGOS repository.  I would like ONE Fusion
ApplicationDefinition for the entire application.  

>From what I understand  the map definition must be defined in the
ApplicationDefinition.xml file in the MapSet tag, MapGroup container, Map
tag.  Further, the MapGroup ID is then referenced by the MapWidget.

To avoid having a huge and difficult to maintain ApplicationDefinition file
with all of my maps, what would be the best approach for my needs?  The map
will be determined by the application at run-time after the user logs in,
and I need to then load the Fusion layout with that map (a MGOS map
resource).  I see that the loadMap() method in the Fusion command API will
do what I need, but the map definition must exist in the AppDef first.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thank you.
