Begin to create a portlet where you can enter a type value and see a list of mortgage places and a map. Click the name of a place in the list, and the map displays a location marker.

You can create the Record parts in various ways, but in this lesson you will access a REST service on the web and include, in the web address, the details necessary to retrieve data from the service. The New EGL Record wizard will create the Record parts that correspond to the data that is retrieved at development time.
Do as follows:
When you use an external web service, you create an Interface part that identifies the service operations that will be accessed. The Interface part is used by the requesting code and is not a component of the service itself.
Do as follows:
To create the MapLocatorHandler handler:
If you click the Source tab, you can see code that the EGL Rich UI editor created.
In the next lesson, you add source code to complete the MapLocatorHandler handler.
