Shapefile

Do anyone know how to read the shapefile formats. I want to do a simple application to show the map of some places using shapefile. Please help me Regards Hari krishnan
Some libraries exist as part of other applications (see for example here[^]). If you want to do your own implementation you can read the format specification here.[^]. Notice that it is a bit of a WTF. They where unable to figure out if they should use little endian or big endian, so they made the obvious choice of using both in the same file - one for the file structure information, and another for the data itself.
