[mapguide-users] Add Mapguide layer to OpenLayers

[Greg]

I am looking for a little direction regarding OpenLayers and Mapguide.  In
the OpenLayers examples for adding a mapguide layer it shows how to add a
layer like this:

The MapGuide layer can also be created using mapname and session as follows
provided there
          is some wrapper code to obtain a valid session id and mapname */
          /*
          var params = {
              mapname: 'Sheboygan49ad9e20e7171',
              session:
'7405c17a-0000-1000-8000-0017a4e6ff5d_en_7F0000010AFC0AFB0AFA'

What I am unclear about is the "wrapper code".  I am using .net and can
create a mapguide session and get the session but have been unsuccessful at
getting a map name as shown above.

This is what I have tried:

String realPath = Request.ServerVariables["APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH"];
        realPath = realPath.Replace(@"Cid_Map\", "");
        String configPath = realPath + "webconfig.ini";
        MapGuideApi.MgInitializeWebTier(configPath);
        MgUserInformation userinfo = new
OSGeo.MapGuide.MgUserInformation(defaultUser, defaultPassword);
        MgSite site = new MgSite();
        site.Open(userinfo);
        sessionId = site.CreateSession();

        MgUserInformation userInfo = new MgUserInformation(sessionId);
        MgSiteConnection siteConnection = new MgSiteConnection();
        siteConnection.Open(userInfo);
        
        MgResourceService resService =
(MgResourceService)siteConnection.CreateService(MgServiceType.ResourceService);

        MgMap map = new MgMap();
        map.Open(resService, "Cid_Map");
        mapName = map.GetName().ToString();

I get an error "resource not found" at this line: map.Open(resService,
"Cid_Map")

I am not sure this will give me what I am looking for even if I can get it
to work.  Maybe there is an easier way.

Thanks,

Greg
