Updating Existing Web Sites

Follow the instructions in this section if you wish to update a 32-bit MapXtreme Web Site to use the
latest assemblies.

In order to run a Web site created with a previous release of MapXtreme, you must edit your
application’s Web.config file to point to the new versions of the assemblies.

Assemblies are located in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_32.

At a minimum, you must include MapInfo.CoreEngine.dll, MapInfo.CoreEngine.Wrapper.dll,
MapInfo.CoreTypes.dll and MapInfo.WebControls.dll.

When you are finished editing, save your Web.config file and rebuild your web site.

Check that the Copy Local property for your web controls is set to False. See

Set Copy Local

property to False on page 45

.

Updating Existing Desktop Applications

Desktop applications created with a previous release of MapXtreme can be recompiled to work in
the current release. Controls may have to be re-added to the form.

There are several things you need to do first.
