 Currently, it is not possible to use the King.Oracle FDO Provider for WFS
 publication. Due to the way King.Oracle creates his class names
 (Schema~Table~GeometryField), it adds in characters that become invalid
 XML element names.

 Here is an example of the error generated when trying to execute the
 GetFeature WFS command:

 '''An exception occurred in FDO component. Element
 'SIGIM_VSG~MAT_MUN_CR_S~LOC_GEOMETRY' is not a valid XML 1.0 element
 name.'''

 The problem is somewhat tricky, as correcting it in the FDO Provider
 itself would mean changing how the class names are generated to remove the
 use of invalid characters, but that fix would invalidate all the existing
 Mapguide layers defined using the provider. Maybe the WFS interface could
 generate the XML using clean names that are mapped to the class names, but
 this would obviously have a performance hit. Hopefully a solution can be
 found.
