MapXtreme Controls
Once you have created a basic application using one of our templates, enhancements are possible
using a variety of MapXtreme controls provided in the Toolbox.
For desktop map applications built using Windows Forms, MapXtreme Windows Controls are
available. Any of the controls found in the MapXtreme Windows Controls tab of the Visual Studio
Toolbox can be added to your form. See
Chapter 7: Desktop Applications, Controls, Dialogs,
and Tools .
For MapXtreme ASP.NET web applications, MapXtreme Web Controls are available. Any of the
controls found in the MapXtreme Web Controls tab of the Toolbox, can be added to your form. See
Chapter 5: Web Applications, Controls, and Tools for more information.
Building ASP.NET Web Applications Without a Template
You may also build your ASP.NET map application without using the MapXtreme templates. For
example, to create a Visual Basic web application:
1. Choose File > New Project from the Visual Studio menu. Under Visual Studio Installed
Templates, navigate to the Web section under your preferred programming language. Choose
the generic ASP.NET Web Application template and click OK..
2. From the MapXtreme Web Controls group in the Toolbox, choose a control and drag it onto the
form. This will add MapXtreme assemblies as references in your project: MapInfo.WebControls.
MapInfo.CoreEngine, MapInfo.CoreTypes and MapInfo.CoreEngine.Wrapper. It will also update
your web.config file with assembly information.
