在前面的文章中我介绍了一个应用于MapGuide Ajax Viewer的智能起始页，它支持缩放到指定位置，查询并高亮和缩放到指定条件的要素，对图层中要显示的要素进行过滤等等。但也许还有些同学不太会用这个示例，下面是安装使用方法：

How to install this sample application?

I am often asked how to install/use this sample application, here is the detailed steps:

1. unzip the sample application to a folder of your web server where Map Server Extension is installed. Let’s say: C:\Work\CodeSamples\MgViewerExtention

2. Copy all dlls from “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Infrastructure Web Server Extension 2013\www\mapviewernet\bin” to “C:\Work\CodeSamples\MgViewerExtention\MgViewerExtention\bin”

3. Copy “WebConfig.ini” from “C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Infrastructure Web Server Extension 2013\www” to “C:\Work\CodeSamples\MgViewerExtention\MgViewerExtention”

4. Open Internet Information Services(IIS) Manager by typing “inetmgr” in Start –> Run

5. Add a application in IIS. Right click “Default Web Site” and select “Add Application”, input alias as “MgViewerExtension”, please note that the URL to access this web application will be http://localhost/<yourAliasName>, for me it ishttp://localhost/MgViewer/Extension.  It is recommend to select "MapServer2013App” as application pool. You will notice that it is using .net Framework 4.0 for AIMS2013.  The physical path refers to the folder which contains the ASPX web page, for me, it is C:\Work\CodeSamples\MgViewerExtention\MgViewerExtention.

6, Give it a run and test, refer to the top of this post for test URLs.

How to Debug and Extend this further?

1. Open the “MgViewerExtention.sln” solution is Visual Studio 2010, set an break points at somewhere.

2. Launch the browser to the MgViewerExtension.

3. Attach to process from Debug menu, attach to “w3wp”, please note the username should be “MapServer2013App” as it may have more than one “w3wp” process.

4. Refresh the webpage, your break point will be hit.

Please refer to this video at MapServer Developer Center, it is for AIMS 2012 x64, but it still applies to AIMS 2013 as well.
