GWT Maps over https

[HabsQ]

Is there a way to use GWT Maps so that it will use https instead of
http?

I'm pretty sure that if you use the Maps.loadMapsApi() method to load
Maps, it will use whatever protocol the page was originally loaded
with.

You're right. It turned out that the problem came from gwt-maps
utility instead of the gwt-maps.

Thanks.

So how can I get the gwt GoogleMap to load from https instead of http?

Sample code:

private final MapOptions options = MapOptions.create ();

final SimplePanel panel = new SimplePanel ();

panel.setSize ("100%","100%");

com.google.maps.gwt.client.GoogleMap googleMap = com.google.maps.gwt.client.GoogleMap.create (

        panel.getElement (),

        options);

gwt.xml:

<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false" />

Running my webapp over http, using Google Chrome, I get this:

[blocked] The page at 'https://www.mySite.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but ran insecure content from 'http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false': this content should also be loaded over HTTPS.

I expected the GWT maps API to be able to look at the url and pick the proper protocol automatically and without having to put it in the gwt.xml file...
