[mapguide-users] DWGLoadProcedure

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

To convert data to SDF, you must use the FDO libraries.
I think the FDO toolbox can do this for you, and if not, it's open 
source, so you can use it as a starting point:
http://code.google.com/p/fdotoolbox

By "Set the coordinate system", do you mean coordinate system override?
If so, you can look at how Maestro does this:
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/browser/trunk/Tools/Maestro/Maestro/ResourceEditors/CoordinateSystemOverride.cs#L256

I'm not quite sure how SHP files work, but I think you have to add the 
.dbf to the featuresource as well,
ea. add these lines:
using (System.IO.FileStream fss = 
System.IO.File.OpenRead("C:\\Hydrant.dbf"))
    con.SetResourceData(resId, "ShapeFile.DBF", ResourceDataType.File, fss);

And the SHP provider should pick it up. Repeat for any extra files you 
want (ea. index files, etc.)
