[fdo-internals] Counting rows in managed IFeatureReader

[Robert Fortin]

Maksim,

You can use the IselectAggregate command with the COUNT function to retrieve the number of rows for a given class.
This will ensure that you use the optimize implementation of the native data source to retrieve the number of row where it is available.

Subject: [fdo-internals] Counting rows in managed IFeatureReader


Hi all,

Since IFeatureReader doesn't provide Count property for total number of
records in it, what's the most "proper" way to get it out from managed
IFeatureReader? I'm asking this because of necessity to explicitly close a
reder after it's returned from, say, ISelect command. How do I get a safe
copy of instantiated managed IFeatureReader object to count it's properties,
without affecting the original one?

It would be a no brainer if IFeatureReader was fully implemented in .NET,
but managed bindings always make me wonder if unmanaged resources get
disposed in a proper way.

Regards,
Maksim Sestic
