The term GisLink refers to the technique used to create or modify Add-In applications for the SIS desktop. Map Manager, Map Editor and Map Modeller can be customised using GisLink.
GisLink customisations may be written using any .NET development language. Cadcorp recommends Visual Studio as the development environment for Add-Ins.
SIS Add-Ins must be run in-process (as assembly libraries). Any existing out-of-process GisLink applications must be converted to in-process. The applications need to be built against the architecture (x86 / x64) of the SIS desktop. See Creating an "In-process" GisLink Application.
SIS 7.0 Add-Ins must be changed because of the new ribbon interface introduced at SIS 7.1.
SIS 7.1 Add-Ins must be updated as the out-of-process function is not supported in SIS.
The availability of GisLink API methods is dependent on the level of the SIS Desktop licence.
