[mapguide-users] querying number of objects in a feature

[A H]

i think this is a simple function, but i couldn't find it in the
manual/examples. how do you retrieve number of objects in the feature? i'm
building a page that displays total number of objects in each feature
classes. what i have now:

        List<StrItems> result = new List<StrItems>();
        Utilities.InitializeWebTier();
        string mgSessionId = Utilities.ValidateMgSession("");

        MgUserInformation userInfo = new MgUserInformation(mgSessionId);
        MgSiteConnection siteConnection = new MgSiteConnection();
        siteConnection.Open(userInfo);

        MgResourceService resourceService =
siteConnection.CreateService(MgServiceType.ResourceService) as
MgResourceService;
        MgFeatureService featureService =
siteConnection.CreateService(MgServiceType.FeatureService) as
MgFeatureService;

        MgResourceIdentifier featureSourceId = new
MgResourceIdentifier("Library://World/Data/" + featureSource +
".FeatureSource");
        MgFeatureCommandCollection Commands = new
MgFeatureCommandCollection();

        MgStringCollection colStringClass =
featureService.GetClasses(featureSourceId, "");

        for (int i = 0; i < colStringClass.GetCount(); i++)     // iterate
through feature classes
        {
            MgFeatureQueryOptions newQuery = new MgFeatureQueryOptions();
            newQuery.SetFilter("");
            MgFeatureReader featureReader =
featureService.SelectFeatures(featureSourceId, colStringClass.GetItem(i),
newQuery);
            int featureCount = 0;
            while (featureReader.ReadNext())
            {
                featureCount++;
            }
        }
        return result;

but as you can see, this is slow because it reads through the featureReader.
can't i just get the Count of the featureReader? GetPropertyCount() just
return number of attributes in the feature.
