How to use
See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on compiling, setting up the debugger, and running the sample.
Data has been provided for your use with this sample. It can be found at
<Your ArcGIS Developer Kit Install directory>/Samples/data/USZipCodeData.
If the sample has associated data, you will find that the sample's zip file includes a "data" folder alongside the language folders.
However, you will need to update the sample to point to the location of the data once you have extracted all the files.
- Start Visual Studio, open the solution file, and build the project.
- Open the application (ArcMap, ArcGlobe, or a MapControl or GlobeControl application) to add the command.
- Open the Customize dialog box, find the Weather category, and drag the Add RSS Weather command onto your toolbar.
- Alternatively, click the Add from file button on the Customize dialog box, browse to RSSWeatherGraphicTracker.tlb, then drag the Add RSS Weather command onto your toolbar.
- Add any data type to serve as a background for the sample, such as ArcGIS Online StreetMap data.
- Click Add RSS Weather to connect the RSS feed and show the information geographically.
