I think that there would be some real value in adding a layer to FDO
that specifies UI for feature connections, and how they relate to the
connection parameters (you might want to merge the results of several
controls into a single connection string, etc).

This is a bit of a hard problem though, because for complex providers
like the FME FDO provider this would have to be pretty flexible, such as
allowing a callback to the provider to retrieve a list of values for a
drop-down or multi-select, allowing pop-up dialogs for additional
format-specific options, etc.

Any interest?

Hi Farzad,

The wrong editor is coming up in your Studio.  The editors for the
feature sources are configured in the providereditormap.xml file in the
Studio executable directory.  There should be an entry for ODBC in
there:
    <Entry>
        <ProviderName>OSGeo.ODBC</ProviderName>
 
<Editor>Autodesk.MapGuide.Studio.UI.FeatureSourceEditors.OdbcEditor</Edi
tor>
    </Entry>

I have attached a copy of the ProviderEditorMap.xml file that is
installed with Studio.  If you overwrite your existing file with this
version, you will get back to the default settings.

Hope that this solves the problem
Tom
