Comment Feed for Channel 9 - Virtual Earth ASP.NET Control - CTP Release http://ecn.channel9.msdn.com/o9/previewImages/100/417721_100x75.jpg Channel 9 - Virtual Earth ASP.NET Control - CTP Release Finally at long last we have released the Virtual Earth ASP.NET control (CTP Release). I spent a few minutes with Angus Logan from the Windows Live Platform Team to show off the control and give a quick demo to get you started. Go get the control from http://dev.live.com/tools, download the Windows Live Tools July CTP Release then watch the video and go build some maps.  -Enjoy. en Fri, 24 May 2013 08:12:26 GMT Fri, 24 May 2013 08:12:26 GMT Rev9 Re: Virtual Earth ASP.NET Control - CTP Release
However, Angus' added statement that, "You get early access but the downside is, you can't go live" doesn't accurately reflect the EULA in the SDK.

I'm not a lawyer, but the license seems to allow you to go live if you post enough warnings that this is pre-production stuff and should not be inhaled or used for life-support.

The Windows Live Virtual Earth ASP.NET Control is a CTP, and you cannot use it on a Live / Production website. If you are looking for a control like this to use Now, I definately recommend you check out the Simplovation Web.Maps.VE control.

Maybe we should have a code off Mark? Javascript vs ASP.NET control?

Maybe the fairest way to do this is to take straight java script guys and make them use the ASP.NET control and take ASP.NET guys and make them use the JS only Smiley Just tossing ideas here. Want to make this fair after all.

Actually, I wonder if anybody on this forum is a deep expert on the VE java script control. Maybe it's not a fair contest? In either case, would be cool to have a bake off.

Anyhoo, in order to evaluate this I spent the day porting some code from Javascript and I've come across a bug. The Shape.ID never gets a value in my tests. I've reported it on Connect and I figured I'd mention it here in case anyone was tempted to do the same but that this issue might be a deal breaker for them.

Hope to see it released soon.

Give me a control that provides user experience features and functionality but that understands a common data format and let me source the data separately and buy the control for a one off fee (or make it free!).

Usually the daata stores will have only the street address, state, and zip.
