[mapguide-users] Create Featuresource

[Gunter Becker]

Thank you Jackie,

I've put all the managed and unmanaged dll's from the windows binaries in
the bin folder of my WebApplication and tried to follow your steps but I got
an error message :

File or assembly  "file:///C:\Users\gunter.becker\Documents\Visual Studio
2008\Projects\CSOGIS\bin\ExpressionEngine.dll" or one of its dependencies,
was not found. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest.

Do you know if I miss something?

Gunter
