The inifile, iniParms.xml, controls this GENERIC application. The application can be used as a GENERIC VIEWER for different
MAP applications by customising the iniParms.XML file without compilation.
iniParms.xml enables:
* UI Layout
* Map setup
* Layer display information:
eg to override information in the database
* MapServices
* Maps to Display in the Mapnifier
* etc.
Any further control aspects can be added to this iniParms.xml.
This is the runtime compiled version and the source cannot be changed using VS2008. The source code is not available here.
Only the iniParms.xml file can edited to customise the application.
--------------------------------------------------------------
To see how the application can be customed by editing the iniParms.xml file Install the application on a Windows Internet Server (IIS) as follows:
1 - Unzip AS16657.zip into any directory
2 - Create a Virtual Directory in IIS as follows (preferably
on your own computer if you have IIS installed):
* Open the IIS manager
* Right Click on the Default Web Site
* Select New>Virtual Directory...
* With the Wizard Create a new virtual directory for this
application (say temp)
3 - Browse with URL: http://localhost/temp
4 - Now with an editor (notepad, etc) open up the iniParms.xml
file and change the following line:
<direction>ltr</direction>
to: <direction>rtl</direction>
5 - Browse again with URL: http://localhost/temp
* The navigation should now be on the right
and the tools on the left
6 - Now try altering the following values
<xmin>-130</xmin>
<ymin>10</ymin>
<xmax>-70</xmax>
<ymax>60</ymax>
to:
<xmin>-100</xmin>
<ymin>30</ymin>
<xmax>-80</xmax>
<ymax>50</ymax>
