Hi Craig, I went through the slides you suggested and the code for creating a QGis Plug-in as well. I guess the steps are more appropriate for a Linux environment. But, as far as Windows is concerned, I think I need to have the .lib files to link the modules in the DLL files (I mean the DLLs found in the QGis installation directory). I could find all the required DLLs in the installation directory, but I couldn't find the .lib files required for linking those DLLs from C++ (Windows Environment). I am using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 as my development environment. Is there any other means to create a Plug-in for an existing (already installed) QGis application under Windows?
Or Do I need to link those DLLs dynamically from my Plug-in code? Kindly help me out in this regard. Thanks.

If you are using the Titan installer for Windows, available for download on the Qgis website then the User Guide (userguide.pdf) should be located in: c:\Program Files\Quantum GIS\share\qgis\doc\ You could also take a look at Marco Hugentobler's plugin presentation from last year's FOSS4G conference. The presentation slides are available here: http://www.foss4g2006.org/contributionDisplay.py?contribId=50&sessionId=66&c onfId=1 I don't know what kind of customization you have in mind, but before creating something of your own check that GRASS (http://grass.itc.it/) doesn't already offer the functionality you require. Good luck.

I need to customize (or create external plug-in for) QGis so that I can add my own functionalities to it. I have experience in customizing ESRI ArcMap application using ArcObjects. But, QGis seems to be totally different from that. I would be happy if someone could help me out with a walkthrough for customizing QGis under Windows. Your help in this regard is highly appreciated. Thank you.
