<p class=MsoNormal>I disagree with your views that file-based providers do not
have this problem.<br>
Some of our customers have a folder with many tables.<br>
This folder is accessed through the OGR provider.<br>
<br>
The customers usually require that the folder is placed on network storage.<br>
Enumerating and evaluating all files can cause significant delays.<br>
<br>
I suggest that the RFC is updated to include all FDO providers.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>RFC 23 (<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc23">http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc23</a>)
has been posted. This RFC proposes APIs for retrieving feature class
information without having to perform a full DescribeSchema. The main
benefit will be improved performance in applications connecting to RDBMS
datasources. Please review the proposal and reply to this list with your
comments by July 15, 2008.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
