Bespoke Applications – Building your own website

A Cadcorp SIS WebMap map can be inserted into any aspx page with custom functionality and design. This approach uses Visual Studio to create a web forms application which can then be deployed or packaged, using the controls included in the WML API.

Notes:

  • This topic assumes that there is a working Cadcorp SIS WebMap installation available to receive the embedded map scripts.
  • The licence file (cadcorp.lservrc) must be valid for the development machine.
  • If an exception occurs, it will be written to an error log. The error log is in App_Data\ErrorLog in the WebMap installation folder (C:\inetpub\wwwroot\)
  • For the purposes of this exercise, it is assumed that WebMap is found at this location: http://localhost/SISWebMap9/
