C++ APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE ° GTK ArcGIS control applications with the make utility Once you have read that documentation, continue with Step 2. 2. Now that you know what platform you will be developing on, install the ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit on that platform, if you have not done so already. Make sure to register your ArcGIS Engine! 3. Before beginning with a new API, it can be helpful to have some idea why things might not be working. Some of the common configuration mistakes are covered in the ‘Troubleshooting’ section in this chapter. 4. You should now have a computer configured for C++ development and know how to set up, compile, and run ArcObjects C++ code in your development environment of choice. The next step is to become familiar with ArcObjects and the C++ API. Getting to work 1. If you are programming on either Solaris or Linux, you now need to initialize your ArcGIS Engine. You should also be aware that if a C++ API application crashes on Solaris or Linux, you need to run mwcleanup, as discussed in ‘Solaris and Linux postcrash cleanup’ in this chapter. 2. ArcObjects is based on the Microsoft Component Object Model, or COM, and successful ArcObjects programming requires a basic understanding of COM. Read ‘Building an understanding of COM and ArcObjects’ earlier in this chapter for information on developing COM knowledge and the ArcGIS system. The resources in that document are only a brief introduction. A more complete understanding of the ArcObjects system can be developed through the overviews in the Library Reference for each of the ArcGIS libraries and by taking ESRI courses targeted at ArcObjects programmers. 3. Now you will begin to get into the details of the ArcObjects C++ API. To get started, step through one of these walkthroughs. The walkthrough you complete should reflect your ArcObjects C++ goals: • For command-line application programmers (Windows, Solaris, or Linux): See the section ‘Building a command-line C++ application’ in Chapter 6. • For ArcGIS control application programmers (Solaris or Linux): See the section ‘Building applications with C++ and Motif widgets’ in Chapter 6. 4. You should now be able to write your own applications using the ArcObjects C++ API. If you are programming on either Solaris or Linux, or if you are programming on Windows using the Visual Studio command-line tools, you will need to write a makefile to go with your application. Template makefiles have been provided for your use. Select the makefile appropriate for your developer environment and modify it as discussed in the platform configuration document you were directed to above. • Windows command-line programming with nmake • Solaris command-line programming with make 210 • ArcGIS Engine Developer Guide
C++ APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE • Linux command-line programming with make • Solaris Motif ArcGIS control programming with make • Linux Motif ArcGIS control programming with make • Solaris GTK ArcGIS control programming with make • Linux GTK ArcGIS control programming with make Similarly, if you wrote code on one platform and now want to transfer it to another, simply copy your code to the supported platform you want to transfer it to, select and modify the appropriate makefile from above, and compile and run the application on the new platform. 5. This introduction has not covered every piece of the C++ API. Another tool provided for you are the samples. To further your C++ API knowledge, as well as your understanding of the ArcObjects framework, read through and try some of the samples. For information on how to use the C++ samples, see the online Help topic ‘How to Use the C++ Samples’, and to find samples for C++ you can use the samples query page in the online Help. Although not all of the samples are written in C++, they are still useful for learning the ArcObjects framework and the recommended method calls to use in development. You may find code written in Visual Basic that does a task you would like to do in C++. See the section ‘Converting from Visual Basic to C++’ in this chapter for some tips on converting VB code to C++. 6. There are important C++ API topics that have not been covered in this introduction. As you need additional information, refer to the following documents: • Some of the functions specific to the C++ API have been introduced to you through the walkthroughs and samples, but the complete documentation on them is in the ‘Recommended function usage’ section in this chapter. • Recommended C++ programming techniques: ° Smart types ° Naming conventions ° Debugging tips in Developer Studio • Recommended ArcObjects programming practices: ° Cocreating an object with a smart pointer reference after the smart pointer is declared ° ESRI System interfaces ° Raw pointers in function signatures ° Return ArcObjects from functions ° Inline query interface ° Replicating the functionality of instanceof (Java) or TypeOf (Visual Basic) ° Getting a feature’s field values from type VARIANT Chapter 4 • Developer environments • 211
