How to build an interactive map via C++?

Post by Bernd Welter »

Hi there,

for those of you who want to build a C++ application with an interactive map I have some ideas about how to start:
  • You could use Chromium Embedded (CEF) which is a browser control. This surrounding container enables you to use any JavaScript based mapping library such as Leaflet or MapBox GL. Oli already provides an example on his git hub.
  • An alternative approach is based on active-x, but this is clearly less recommended
We recommend the Embedded Chromium approach.

Best regards,
Bernd
