TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Well, to be technically nit-picky, the Pushpin object
that was referenced is not related to the push pin
button on the UI. Remember, MapPoint was bought by
Microsoft, and the objects defined in the API might
have been left as-is by Microsoft (as an effort to go
through and rename objects is rather tedious, and not
worth-while when considering this API is only being
used to develop mapping applications).
So, go with Microsoft on this. Otherwise, develop the
same functionality in-house, bundle a few extra DLLs
that override Microsoft's native functionality, and
then call it whatever you want. ;)
