Display Bing maps in basemap gallery

Description

This sample shows how to use the BasemapGallery widget to update the map's basemap. This widget allows you to define a collection of basemaps to display in a default gallery or you can define a custom user interface. In this sample we add the Bing Maps basemaps to the basemap gallery.

var basemaps = [];
var basemapRoad = new esri.dijit.Basemap({
layers
: [new esri.dijit.BasemapLayer({
type
: "BingMapsRoad"
})],
title
: "Road"
});
basemapGallery
= new esri.dijit.BasemapGallery({
showArcGISBasemaps
: false,
basemaps
: basemaps,
bingMapsKey
: bingKey,
map
: map
});

Once the basemaps are added to the basemap gallery widget a custom menu is built to display the three basemaps from the gallery: Roads, Aerial and Aerial with Labels.

dojo.forEach(basemapGallery.basemaps, function(basemap) {
//Add a menu item for each basemap, when the menu items are selected
dijit
.byId("bingMenu").addChild(new dijit.MenuItem({
label
: basemap.title,
onClick
: dojo.hitch(this, function() {
this.basemapGallery.select(basemap.id);
})
}));
});
When a menu item is selected, the basemap's select method is used to change the map's basemap to the newly selected item.
