[mapguide-dev] Unmanaged Data APIs RFC

[Tony Fang]

Hi Jason,

 

Paul is correct.

Network drives are supported. 

 

I didn't intend to cause confusion with those two sentences. Thanks for
pointing it out.

 

 

Regards,

Tony Fang

For crying out loud... I must have tuned out by the last sentence in
Motivation.

 

Earlier references that got me wound up:

 

"certain directories on the server machine will be specified as
unmanaged data directories"

"Certain directories on the server machine will be specified to be
unmanaged data directories"

 

hmm, almost the same :)

Jason, I believe the spec explicitly states that network drives will 
be accessible:

"For windows, specified directories can be physical drives or network 
paths. For linux, it can be any accessible path."

Cheers

Paul
