[OpenLayers-Users] Re: Box from GetFeature control, can this be polygon?

[MTrottier]

i'm moving foward !
i'm doing my polygon, the request is sent, i got a response and i can define
my callback  

with the help of naresh n, i'm doing something like this :

Hello MTrottier,

 To get polygon intersetced area, defind polygon handler in
OpenLayers.control.GetFeature  as follows.

The follwoing is rough code which you can add in
OpenLayers.Control.GetFeature
if (this.poly) {
            this.handlers.poly = new OpenLayers.Handler.Polygon(this, {
                done: this.selectPoly
            }, OpenLayers.Util.extend(this.handlerOptions.poly, {
                polyDivClassName: "olHandlerPolygonSelectFeature"
            }))
        }


selectPoly: function (a) {
        var b;
        this.modifiers = {
            multiple: this.multiple,
            toggle: this.toggle
        };
        this.polygon = a;
        b = a.getBounds();
        this.setModifiers(this.handlers.poly.evt);
        this.request(b, {
            poly: this.poly
        })
    },

you need to add select feature function in existing request function i.e.
you need to use geometry intersect function.

Thanks&Regards,


unfortunately, the prototype on initialize (getfeature.js) not working :
OpenLayers.Control.GetFeature.prototype.initialize = function(options) {
.... 

is it possible ? 
i need to modify "GetFeature.js" directly to take effects
