[mapguide-users] ByteReader Problem

[Campbell, Keith A]

I am trying to alter a map definition through the API and cannot get the
contents of the MgByteReader in string format. Here's the code:-

            String mapDefinition = "Library://My Folder/Maps/My
Map.MapDefinition";
            MgResourceIdentifier MapResID = new
MgResourceIdentifier(mapDefinition);

            MgByteReader mapByteRdr =
res.GetResourceContent(MapResID);//res is instantiated Resource Service.

            XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
            
            doc.LoadXml(mapByteRdr.ToString());

LoadXML fails with an error ' Root element is missing'. I can copy the
contents of mapByteRdr from Visual Studio at runtime and it contains
properly formatted XML for the map definition. If I use the ToFile()
method, the resultant file is empty. I cannot see why these two methods
do not return the xml string in the reader. Any help is welcome.

Cheers,

Keith
