Example
This example demonstrates how to allow users to search for a specific place on a map using the Search panel.
To enable searching in the map control, do the following.
- Create an InformationLayer and add it to the MapControl.Layers collection.
- Create an instance of the BingSearchDataProvider and assign it to the InformationLayer.DataProvider property.
- Specify the Bing Maps key using the BingMapDataProviderBase.BingKey property.
The Search panel appears automatically (since the BingSearchDataProvider.ShowSearchPanel property value is true by default).
