IRI.Maptor.Samples.Wpf.HelloMap

The smallest complete Maptor WPF application: a window with a MapViewer, a base-map picker, a scale bar and a coordinate panel. Read App.xaml and MainWindow.xaml.cs and you have seen the whole startup path of every Maptor app.

What it shows

• App.xaml — the MahApps.Metro and Maptor resource dictionaries a Maptor app merges.
• App.xaml.cs — Encoding.RegisterProvider, needed to read legacy code pages in shapefile .dbf files.
• MainWindow.xaml — MapViewer, Scalebar, CoordinatePanelView, and a ComboBox over MapProviders.
• MainWindow.xaml.cs — the four initialization steps below.

The essential code

var presenter = new HelloMapViewModel();                         // 1. MapViewModelBase subclass

presenter.InitializeSettings(                                    // 2. settings
    ProxySettings.Default,
    BaseMapSettings.Default,
    new MapSettings { InitialExtent = BoundingBoxes.WebMercator_Europe },
    GeneralSettings.Default);

await MapInitializationHelper.InitializeMapAsync(map, this, presenter);   // 3. bind control + dialogs

DataContext = presenter;

presenter.SelectedMapProvider = TileMapProviderFactory.GoogleRoadMap;    // 4. base map

public class HelloMapViewModel : MapViewModelBase { }

How to run

dotnet run --project samples/IRI.Maptor.Samples.Wpf.HelloMap

Next step: the WPF gallery adds one feature per page on top of exactly this skeleton.
