[mapguide-users] Accessing to non-geographic data

[Zac Spitzer]

I think it only exposes spatial data, that said adding a dummy empty spatial
column is a potential work around...

your lucky your using the postGIS FDO provider, it's has the nicest semantics
when it comes to the fdo class naming conventions

I blogged about this a while ago... basically some FDO providers aren't
transparent and introduce quirky naming conventions
