Fdo2Fdo allows you to write multiple feature classes in SDF.

 

The issue was that SDF by itself (it was confirmed on dev-fdo list) doesn't
allow adding new features after SDF files once was created and populated.

 

So in Fdo2Fdo you need initially to select multiple classes to copy to SDF
and SDF will contain multiple feature classes.

Hi Brad,

 

Safe Software's FME also allows you to write to multiple feature classes in
SDF.  Send me a note offline if you're interested in me sending you a
sample.

 

I'm not sure if Haris' fdo2fdo has the ability to create multiple feature
classes during transfer yet.  When I initially tried it it has problems
because the SDF schema couldn't be redefined to add additional tables.

Seems to be some holes here. Dwgtosdf3.arx only works with classified dwgs.
Using the tools in the display manager only works with one layer at a
time(no append). So one of the nice features of sdf3 is the multiple feature
classes in one file. Does anyone own one of these files? The only source it
could have come from is a classified dwg. Is that correct? I am not wanting
to use the sdf format except that I have considered it for "sending" data to
other autodesk users/requestors. Another note: I have had a bulk copy
running for 4 hrs now. The original data arcsde is approx 40MB. My sdf
output is now at 82MB.

hmm
