[mapguide-users] 2 newbie questions

[Jason Birch]

If you change the data (add/remove features, modify existing attributes)
these will be picked up automatically in the map.  If you
add/remove/change columns, add new tables, or change the geometry type
of existing tables, then these changes will not be picked up by MapGuide
automatically.
 
This is only relevant for database-based formats; editing file-based
formats directly is a bad idea, as you'll run into locking issues.

Actually I meant data change as in gis editing via arcgis, autodesk map,
or api.

Still trying to understand... is this different from the sdf, shp, and
other data types?

Hi,

I suppose by "change" you mean table's structure in database and then
creating/changing layers in Mapguide. For that you need a way to change
local repository of layers and layouts etc... (Studio, Web Studio, XML )

 

As of data itself, data stays in Oracle and you don't need to change
local repository.

I have been trying to glean an understanding from this list of how what
when. Currently using mg6.5 with oracle/sde as sdo geometry. Am I
correct in assuming that with an oracle fdo provider I will still have
to create a local repository and update that repository each time a
change is made in my oracle database?

Also in order to do that at this time the best option is to purchase
autodesk mapguide studio, because free os webstudio is not a complete
replacement for mapguide studio, and there is no other good solution?

 

Can anyone elaborate on these?
