[fdo-users] Arc SDE 9.3

[Robert Fortin]

Jason,

I just double checked with our developer:  The only issue we found was due to the CreateSpatialContext command.  That has not been fixed yet. That forces us to hand craft our unit test since this command was used to build the data set.  But in the case of ArcSDE provider, this is not a command that you are likely to use as the schema is already created using ArcSDE tools.

So, as long as you use the provider on Windows, without dbo user and without Windows Authentication, you should be able to use the 3.3.2 provider to connect to ArcSDE 9.3 using either 9.2 or 9.3 client dlls.  I read that there was some restriction using 9.2 client with SP5 and above but I think it has to do with direct connect mode only.

BTW I'm trying to the get info on how to setup direct connect on the FDO site.  I think this should also work for FDO 3.3.2 but we really just tested it with FDO 3.4 so far.

Robert, was the 9.3 support backported to FDO 3.3 (for inclusion in 3.3.2), or will users have to wait for the 2010 products to appear in order to take advantage of this?

Thanks,
Jason

As Romy mentioned, you can download the latest patch for the provider depending on the version of FDO you want to use.  Go to the FDO download page  http://fdo.osgeo.org/content/downloads.
