[Openlayers3] JS error with Circle style
If I try to use Circle style for Feature display, I get
AssertionError: Assertion failed: obj geometry must be an ol.style.Style instance
in JS console. Perhaps styles should be written to JS code as ol.style.Style instance in all cases, regardless to their true type?
The OpenLayers API is confusing on this point. The ol.style.Style object contains a set of five styles (geometry, fill, image, stroke, etc.) and each one of those is of a specific style type (ol.geom.Geometry, ol.style.Fill, ol.style.Image, etc.)
Looking at the code, I think that this could be modeled better. Right now we Circle extends Style and emits JS to match and that is clearly incorrect; it's more like Fill or Image in that it's a component of an ol.style.Style instance, in is not one itself. In the OL3 API, they use ol.geom.Geometry...
I'll try to think of a solution that makes the most sense. If we have Circle look like an ol.Style.Style instance, we'll be losing other attributes like fill, stroke, etc. and there won't be enough data to draw the style on screen.
