color=#0000ff size=2>The capability to update SDF schema when there is already
an existing schema has been added to 3.2.x. There is some currently some
restriction with what can be modified once it is created but you should be able
to add new class or property (if there is no data for a given class). The
generated SDF format is forward compatible with previous version of SDF
provider. So you can create SDF file with 3.2 and can still read them in
3.1 provider. The limit of a single schema per SDF still exist. This
is to ensure forward compatibility with 3.1.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>In the past, the SDF provider did not require a non-null
value for the spatial context association of the geometry property. This is
because there is one spatial context, so it is clear which one to use and there
was no need to link the geometry property to the spatial context. Therefore
there are existing files with null association.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
