[mapguide-users] Reloading runtime map

[Hidekazu Shimaji]

Sorry, I misread your mail.
Then, why don't you craete a new MgMap object, and overwrite 
the existing Map object in the session respository?

--- code start
//open a run-time map
MgMap map = new MgMap();
map.Open(resourceService, mapId.GetName());
//get its session repository path
MgResourceIdentifier sessionMapId = map.GetResourceId();
//create a new map
map.Create(resourceService, mapId, mapId.GetName());
//overwrite the run-time map in the new map
map.Save(resourceService, sessionMapId);
//refresh using javascript
--- code end
