Subject: [fdo-users] fdo for autocad connection to arcsde 45 character limitation


Hello,

We are encountering an exception error when we try and connect to our ESRI SDE database (SQL Server) using AutoCad Map 2008, which I'm told uses the Open source FDO developed here. We have found on the autodesk forums that there evidently is a 45 character limitation on features using a connection. Does anyone know if this is going to be addressed by the arcsde fdo developer? The 45 character issue is NOT an ESRI limitation, and is prohibiting our autodesk users from connecting to our new database.

The autodesk forum thread is found (near the bottom, from bleestein) at;

Any help or insight appreciated.
