[MetaCRS] Anyone developing CSMap for NET?

Hi Stephen,

You could use the MapGuide managed API to (indirectly) access the CsMap API - not all of CsMap's capabilities are exposed, though.

Take a look at http://svn.osgeo.org/mapguide/trunk/MgDev/Common/Geometry/CoordinateSystem/ - this is the API your managed app can be implemented against.

CsMap virtually has no dependencies on other 3rd party libs whereas MapGuide has. Don't know, whether this would be a problem for you.

André

Subject: [MetaCRS] Anyone developing CSMap for NET?

I've been looking to see if I can use CSMap as part of my C# application, since the codebase is full of loads of good stuff. I thought of trying out SWIG to generate some C# bindings, but I get the impression the results would be a bit messy.

Meanwhile, if I look at Proj.Net on codeplex, I see something that looks relatively intuitive (perhaps that's due to GeoAPI.NET). But the number of map projections supported by Proj.Net isn't that extensive, and it seems no-one has been committing for ages.

Is anybody working on code to make the CSMap code more accessible? If not, what needs to be done to make it happen, and can I help?

Steve
