Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Map
Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Map.v25.1.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Map
Declaration
public class AzureSearchDataProvider :
AzureMapDataProviderBase,
ISearchPanelRequestSenderRemarks
AzureSearchDataProvider allows you to use the Azure Maps Search service. Assign such an object to the InformationLayer.DataProvider property to display the search panel and allow users to search for a specific place on a map. To hide the search panel, set the MapControl.ShowSearchPanel property to false.
Call the AzureSearchDataProvider.Search method to search for locations that correspond to the specified attributes. The maxResults parameter of the Search method overloads allows you to specify the number of results that can be obtained by a search request.
To get search results, handle the SearchCompleted event. The SearchCompletedEventArgs.RequestResult returns a SearchRequestResult object that stores search results.
For more information on how to use search map services in the Map Control, refer to the following help topic: Search.
Example
The following example calls the AzureSearchDataProvider.Search method to search for a location by a text search query:
