Namespace:  EGIS.Web.Controls
Assembly:  EGIS.Web.Controls (in EGIS.Web.Controls.dll)

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Class VectorTileGenerator
C#
public class VectorTileGenerator
Visual C++
public ref class VectorTileGenerator
JavaScript
EGIS.Web.Controls.VectorTileGenerator = function();

Type.createClass(
	'EGIS.Web.Controls.VectorTileGenerator');

Remarks

This class can be combined with EGIS.Mapbox.Vector.Tile.VectorTileParser to create Mapbox vector tiles.
