[mapguide-users] MapGuide Open Source 1.0.0 - RC1 Released

[Andy Morsell]

I'm going to ask this before I install as it will help gauge the importance
of upgrading immediately versus taking it a little more slowly.  I glanced
through the PDF documents and the web site and did not see information on
the differences between 0.91 and 1.0 other than what Bob had in the
announcement email.  If I missed that, is there a comprehensive list
somewhere?  If not, here are some questions:

*	

	Did ODBC and secondary datasource support make it into the release? 
*	

	Are more coordinate systems supported?
*	

	Is raster supported?

Thanks.

The only two that did are SDF and SHP. We plan to release them incrementally
over the next couple of months.

Which FDO's didn't make it into the RC1?

Today we are releasing MapGuide Open Source 1.0.0 - Release Candidate 1 and
launching the new home of MapGuide Open Source: http://mapguide.osgeo.org
<http://mapguide.osgeo.org/> . To coincide with the release a new freely
downloadable preview version of MapGuide Studio will be available. 

 

This release is significantly faster and more robust than the previous 0.9.1
release and the installation has been simplified. The AJAX Viewer is much
more stable, complete, and now works in Safari as well as Internet Explorer
and FireFox. In addition the Map Agent now fully accepts Open Geospatial WMS
and WFS (non-transactional) requests.

 

Notes for users of 0.9.1

 

1. This release will require you to recreate your feature sources, layers,
maps, and web layouts. This should be the only time this is required. Future
releases will incorporate an upgrade script that will migrate and upgrade
the resources in an existing servers XML database. 

 

2. The prefixes on all of the APIs have been changed from Aw to Mg. To
migrate your code from 0.9.1 to 1.0.0 you should be able to search and
replace Aw* with Mg*.

 

One word of warning, it looks like the new MapGuide Studio has not yet been
posted on autodesk.com. Stay tuned I will send a follow-up e-mail as soon as
it is available.

 

Bob
