Exporting to GoogleMaps models about android-geojson HOT 2 CLOSED

When creating a Model with FeatureCollection, the final output does not contain a "FeatureCollection" type.

JSONObject statusJSONObject = new JSONObject();
FeatureCollection featureCollection = new FeatureCollection();

for (final Event event :events) {
Feature feature = new Feature();
Point point = new Point( event.getLatitude(),event.getLongitude());
feature.setGeometry(point);
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
final Map<String, Object> metadataItems = event.getMetaData();
if (metadataItems != null) {
for (final Entry<String, Object> entry : metadataItems
.entrySet()) {
jsonObject.put(entry.getKey(),
entry.getValue());
}
}
//Add event to properties.
jsonObject.put("email", event.getEmail());
feature.setProperties(jsonObject);
featureCollection.addFeature(feature);
}
JSONObject topNode = featureCollection.toJSON();

it topNode produces:
{
"features": [
{
"type": "Feature",
"properties": {....} }.

why is that? it SHOULD BE:
{
"type": "FeatureCollection",
"features": [
{ ....

is this a bug?? or am i implementing the code incorrectly? Please advise. - Jeryl Cook

While I can see the usefulness of such a feature, I believe such conversion is out of scope of this library, and would introduce an unwanted dependency on the Google Maps SDK.

@VanitySoft please file a separate issue if you are still having a problem.
