[mapguide-users] FeatureSource. PointTypeStyle? LineTypeStyle?

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

It should be robust enough to fix "mistakes" such as missing 
collection/empty collection and the likes.
If you do manage to get through it, a sample would fit nicely here:
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/maestro/MaestroAPI
