Hope i have posted the mail in the rite place.

I need to know the google map API to save maps to a folder. My borland
c++ application should in the background download the map according to
a gps latitude longitude and save the map in a folder. There is a
Ublox Gps sensor which transmits latitude and longitude to the c++
application.

what I have done so far is:

1>I use Borland C++ Builder Version 5.I have included google map api
in my application and its not a website. (I also use Opengl to draw
the map as a texture on a panel and take care of zooming, panning in
opengl)

2>Presently I need to pre download the google map required from the
website and store it as a bitmap using paint application. I have the
map corner latitudes longitudes noted down and use it in my
application.

3>Goal: Within my c++ application I need to download the map and save
to a folder as a background process on the click of a button in my
application.


Other details:
I use TCppWebBrowser which can access a website. which could be done
through any browser outside my application.So no point in what i have
achieved till now.


i got a code where i can i access java script function from visual c++
which can access websites. But unable to make it work on borland c++
builder.

The website I referered had delphi code:

Also went through the api documentation of google maps.

Can anyone help me or guide me in the rite direction? looks like I am
circling with out any solutions.

Thanks in advance
