Hi,
I've just upgraded from 4.5 to 5.5, and one of the gotchas have been TabFeatureLayer.
You've obsoleted the old TabFileFeatureLayer, which worked in a solution I built for version 4.5. However, the replacement TabFeatureLayer doesn't work properly in 5.5 !
My TAB file contains is a road network, and has close to 700,000 records. I've tried to open it with RequireIndex = False, which doesn't seem to work - the browser says "waiting" indefinitely, and nothing shows.
I did create a MapInfo index (IND file) on a uniquely numbered integer field, but it didn't help. Please note here, that I'm indexing using a Danish version of Professional, and that the created indexes in this are different from US indexes (which I cannot create) !
I've tried to add a call to BuildIndexFile, but is unsure what 1st parameter to use, and unsure whether to call the method every time, as indexing 700,000 records take a very long time !
How to check whether an index has been created already (and avoid doing it again) ?
And I can't seem to be able to use the "obsolete" TabFileFeatureLayer" either, although:
- it's referenced in and added to my project
- is present in the "bin" folder of the published application
It errs with a message in the map window: "Could not find MapSuiteFdoExtension.dll assembly". I've tried to copy "FdoExtension.dll" to both Windows/System32 and Windows/SysWow64, both under its own name ("FdoExtension.dll") and renamed to "MapSuiteFdoExtension.dll", but nothing works.
Please advise !
