Extending ArcObjects - Getting Started

Begin a series on programming with ArcObjects by setting up a development environment for ArcMap. Create a Visual Basic ArcMap project, add a toolbar and command, link them together, and implement an event to display a message when the user clicks a button. Introduce the IApplication interface to modify the ArcMap title on button click. Covers essential interfaces like IApplication, ICommand, and ICommandBar. Includes source code for each episode and guidance on setting up an ArcGIS development environment. Learn to create custom tools and commands to extend ArcMap functionality through hands-on coding examples.
