Hi,
In a navigator project, I want to read shapefile (say chennai map) and show
the map on the screen. For Window, .Net & WinCE we got activex
controls; we can directly use. For linux i am searching for such a control.
I searched my best, but could not find any :(
Any input from you will help.
Convert Shapefile to SVG ?
http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/utils/shp2svg/
Then use GTK's ImageView widget to display the image ?
If Gtk's Image View doesn't support SVG, use Gtk-MozEmbed, which is
based on Gecko and should render the SVG file.
