MindManager 6 Object Model Reference
This map is a work-in-progress, so it isn't 100% complete yet. Some of the hyperlinks do not work when the map is opened in the viewer but they work when the map is downloaded and used in MindManager.

Add-In
A DLL typically written in C++, Visual Basic, or C# that is loaded in Mindjet MindManager when MindManager starts up. Add-Ins use the object model to interact with MindManager.
-
ADO
"Microsoft® ActiveX® Data Objects (ADO) enable your client applications to access and manipulate data from a variety of sources through an OLE DB provider. Its primary benefits are ease of use, high speed, low memory overhead, and a small disk footprint. ADO supports key features for building client/server and Web- based applications."

-
Map Part
Map Parts, in their generic form, are static topic and subtopic structures with standard content. Their purpose is to save time re-entering frequently-used or common information sets such as days of the week, actions, standard meeting agendas etc. You can create your own map parts with frequently-used topics. Generic map parts are stored in the main Map Parts folder, accessible from the Map Parts task pane.
(From the MindManager online help)
-
Map Viewer
A free web browser plug-in component that allows web developers to put navigable and browsable maps on their web sites so the maps could be viewed using any computer with Microsoft Internet Explorer.
-
Smart Map Part
Smart Map Parts are a special type of map parts that contains active links to applications and web services which are external to MindManager. They have the ability to integrate data retrieved from desktop programs, application databases, search engines and online news organizations into a map by using XML, XSL and Web Services technologies.
-
Template
A map template is, basically, a map that contains some pre-defined content. Map templates can give you a jump-start on creating frequently-used maps and can provide consistency in content and structure. MindManager comes with a set of map templates for common tasks. One special template, called New Blank Map, is used each time you create a new, blank map.
-
Transformations
Because MindManager X5 and 6 are XML-based, their map content can be easily transformed to and from other XML-based data formats. The primary language for doing this is Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT).
-
Web Service
"A Web service is a software system designed to support interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network. It has an interface described in a machine-processable format (specifically WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP messages, typically conveyed using HTTP with an XML serialization in conjunction with other Web-related standards. Software applications written in various programming languages and running on various platforms can use web services to exchange data over computer networks like the Internet in a manner similar to inter-process communication on a single computer. This interoperability (e.g., between Java and Python, or Windows and Linux applications) is due to the use of open standards. OASIS and the W3C are the steering committees responsible for the architecture and standardization of web services. To improve interoperability between web service implementations, the WS-I organization has been developing a series of profiles to further define the standards involved."

Wizard
Some templates have attached wizards that run automatically each time the template is used to create a new map. Wizards can simplify information entry in many ways, for example, to prompt for information in a specific form (ie date in mm/dd/yyyy form) or within a certain range. They can also be used to ensure that the map information is complete.
