[mapguide-users] Create Featuresource

[Gunter Becker]

Using the SDK File in a WindowsApplication works for me!

But I would like to manage the creation of a feature source in the
WebApplication.

I think I have the C++ runtime library installed but I don't know exactly.
How can I determine that I have Visual C++ 2008 runtime library installed? I
don't need it becaus I#m not a C++ programmer! So do you think uninstalling
the runtime library could solve my problem?
