The upcoming Bentley Map V8i (SELECTseries 4) release has a new ability to work directly with Esri File Geodatabase content, which consists of folders with a number of files. I would suggest you download and take a look at the currently available Bentley…

Would recommend use of the GDIImportProcessor class which has an InstancesProcessed property that would provide the count you are looking for.

Andrea, From your managed C# application you would need to call the unmanaged mdlDB_processSQL function using .NET Platform Invoke (P/Invoke) services. You could create a wrapper function to be called that included something similar to the following…

Andrea, When Bentley Map is used with Oracle Workspace Manager the GDI_CURRENT_WORKSPACE_NAME configuration variable is set at runtime to indicate the name of the currently selected workspace. That value can be used with a statement such as... EXECUTE…

Greetings Bharat, Are you attempting to use an ad-hoc or registered graphical source connection? Could you send me via mail your solution sources so that I can take a closer look?

As mentioned the TreeForm reference should no longer be necessary. Your OpenFirstOracleGraphicalSouroce method should work as follows: public static bool OpenFirstOracleGraphicalSource(string user, string password) { bool opened = false; if (GeoDataInterchangeAddIn…

Taija, It is good to know that was the problem. However there really should be no need for your MDL application to stroke the arcs. The stroking should occur automatically during the Bentley Map posting process, using a stroke tolerance that should…

Taija, If your data includes non-circular arcs then during post operations the data is stroked into a linear geometry. This is due to the fact that non-circular arcs cannot be persisted in Oracle Spatial 10g or 11g, but will be supported in next major…

Greetings, For the Bentley Map V8i (SELECTseries 3) 08.11.09 release, you will need to refactor some of your code. For example, your connection to the registered Oracle Spatial graphical source can now be done as follows: // This code opens the…

...the MS_GEOPROJHOME variable defines the default import directory.

...not familiar with that particular error, but at this time I would recommend the use of Visual Studio 2005 Edition when developing applications for the Bentley Map V8 i (SELECTseries 1) platform. Also when adding/replacing references to accomodate your…

This issue has been filed as TR 251510 and is scheduled to be resolved in a Q1 2009 Bentley Map V8 i maintenance release. Regards, Jeff Bielefeld [Bentley]

Tom, The only import tool that I'm aware of is the "Cadastre > Topology > Import LandXML" one. As mentioned, you may find that development of a custom importer may be required. Maybe you can contact me offline and we can further discuss your specific…

Jiri, For you adhoc connection (e.g. without a schema) code, you will need to add the following highlighted lines to the connectAdhoc method: public void connectAdhoc(string userName, string password, string serviceName) { GDI.GDIExplorerOracleImportsNode…

Krister, In the Bentley Geospatial Administrator, when registering your Oracle Spatial layers, if you do not assign a sequence generator to the layer you have effectively defined a "read only" layer (e.g. users can query geometries but cannot post…

Rob, I've not heard of that particular scenario, and you're correct, after the post operation the feature instances should be locked once again, preventing modification in the local design file cache. What version of Bentley Map are you using?

Krister, Thank you for your input and we will take your recommedation for an improved message under consideration. Regarding the use of a configuration variable to change the short transaction behavior, unfortunately long transaction support is only…

Hi Ian, This was fairly easy to reproduce, just attempting to open a TAB file with spaces in the filename seems to do the trick. It seems to be an issue with bot the V8 XM Edition and V8i versions of Bentley Map. Sounds like something that…
