After installing the development tool and JDK1.8 in the computer, Extension Development can be implemented with simple UI configuration in Config File.

The environment configuration steps are as follows:

1. Software installation

2. Development engineering configuration

Detailed description of the environment configuration is as follows:

1. Software installation

Step1: Install IDEA

IDEA is recommended for development tools. It is recommended to install version 2020.2.2 or later of IDEA. Download the Community Edition from the IDEA official website , and double-click the *.exe file in the installation package to install it.

Recommended method: Build Secondary Development Project directly through the Create Secondary Development Project function in the view tab. This method is efficient and convenient. It does not need to manually add desktop dependencies. You can select the development project storage path and customize project parameters. You can also Import Secondary Development Sample Code, which is convenient for users to quickly perform Extension Development.
1. Create Secondary Development Project: Click View Tab-& gt Custom Group-& gt Click the Create Secondary Development Project button, and in the pop-up dialog box, set the custom project name, package name, version, author, and Description according to the prompts, and select the Extension Development template type.

Group and GPA tool sample group; if GPA template is selected during creation, GPA tool sample directory will be added to the toolbox, including two sample tools, Delete Duplicate Points and Set Coordinate System. If "Import Secondary Development Sample Code" is checked when creating a project, the Ribbon A sample code tab will also be added, which contains some common functions such as Swing control group, desktop basic operation group, Map operation group, Scene operation group, Layout operation group and so on. At this point, the environment is configured successfully, and the user is ready to base on the SuperMap iDesktopX Perform Extension Development. Note: If SuperMap iDesktopX is not started automatically, it is recommended to update the IDEA version to 2020.2.2 or later.
Other methods: You need to manually add dependencies by opening the Extension Development sample template.
1. Open Template Project: IDEA-& gt; File-& gt; Open-& gt; Select the SuperMap iDesktopX package \ templates \ SampleCode directory to open the Extension Development sample template project.
2. Add Desktop Dependency: File-Project Structure-Libraries-Add- JAVA, in the pop-up Select Library Files dialog box, select the following four directories at the same time, click the OK button, and select SampleCode to add the desktop dependency to the Secondary Development plug-in.
  - % iDesktopX Packages%/bin/
  - % iDesktopX packages%/bundles/idesktop _ bundles/
  - % iDesktopX bundles%/bundles/require _ bundles/
  - % iDesktopX Packages%/lib/
3. Compile: Click the Run or Debug button in the toolbar to automatically start SuperMap iDesktopX after compiling. After starting, a Secondary Development tab will be added to the Ribbon. It contains Check Result storage, Delete Duplicate Points and two Function Buttons. In this case, the environment is configured successfully, and the user can perform Extension Development based on SuperMap iDesktopX. Note: If SuperMap iDesktopX is not started automatically, it is recommended to update the IDEA version to 2020.2.2 or later.
