I would like to know if there is some easy way to save a map inside a file, and to be able to "preload" that map from the file, until the images are updated?
I use the map with the following code to keep in memory the bitmaps loaded from url:

B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
    Public cache As Map
End Sub
Sub Service_Create
    cache.Initialize
End Sub


public Sub Downloadimage(link As String, iv As ImageView)
    If cache.ContainsKey(link) Then
        Dim bmp As B4XBitmap = cache.Get(link)
        If bmp.IsInitialized Then iv.SetBackgroundImage(bmp.Resize(iv.Width,iv.Height,True))
    Else
        Dim job As HttpJob
        job.Initialize("", Me)
        job.Download(link)
        Wait For (job) JobDone(job As HttpJob)
        If job.Success Then
            Try
                Dim bmp As B4XBitmap = job.GetBitmap
                cache.Put(link, bmp)
                iv.SetBackgroundImage(bmp.Resize(iv.Width,iv.Height,True))
            Catch
                log(LastException)
            End Try
        End If
        job.Release
    End If
End Sub


Thanks

Hi scsjc:

In the map doc it says:
You can save and load maps with "simple values" with File.WriteMap and File.ReadMap. More complex maps can be saved with B4XSerializator.

So you can make some test with this
