Documentation not correct at graphhopper/docs/core/location-index.md

[AzureIP]

Hi,
In your Documentation at the location index code example the code is not totally correct:

GraphHopper hopper = new GraphHopper();
hopper.set...
hopper.importOrLoad();

LocationIndex index = hopper.getLocationIndex();

//  now you can fetch the closest edge via:
QueryResult qr = findClosest(lat, lon, EdgeFilter.ALL_EDGES );
EdgeIteratorState edge = qr.getClosestEdge();

Yout have to call the function findClosest on the index object you have created before.
So it has to be QueryResult qr = index.findClosest(lat, lon, EdgeFilter.ALL_EDGES );.
I would advise to change this.

Thanks!

Thanks! Yes, we'll probably create some code in the repository (to keep those examples up to date) that we then reference in our documentation. Related #774

Hello karussell,
Thanks for the reply. I have a furthure question to that code. What do I get exactly?

I asked for the closesd way/road to the point in the lake. (Simply the first point in my dataset)

QueryResult qr = index.findClosest(location.lat, location.longd, EdgeFilter.ALL_EDGES );
EdgeIteratorState edge = qr.getClosestEdge();
PointList ghPoint3DS = edge.fetchWayGeometry(0);
for (int i = 0; i < ghPoint3DS.size(); i++) {
    System.out.println("got point " + i + " along: " + ghPoint3DS.getLat(i) + ", " + ghPoint3DS.getLon(i));
}

And I get some Points close to it in some kind of a line. But not points of the closest road where the navigation would begin. What are the three points, and how do I get points from the closest road?
