[mapguide-users] Modifying SymbolDefinition programmatically

[Jackie Ng]

I don't know much about Symbol Definitions, but all resources in mapguide
(including Symbol Definitions) are XML data.

So you could use the Resource Service APIs to get the resource content, edit
the xml content (with your XML access library/api of choice) and save back
the changes. This can be done with any resource.
