Mobile Cache in 10.1

Question

I have read that 10.0 is the last release supporting publishing MXDs. Since creating a mobile cache requires "Mobile Data Access" capability and MSDs does not allow this capabilbity does anyone know how we will create mobile cache for our current mobile apps??????????

Hi,

The reason we were able to create a mobile cache from a published MSD is that we used the SDK to create the mobile cache rather than the GP tool.  However, as far as I know, the SDK only allows connections to data via a mobile data access enabled map service (not directly via MXD / MSD).

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

Just wondering how you created a mobile cache in 10 using the MSD.  I created the service (MSDPublish.jpg & MSDPublish2.jpg) that allows me to select the "Mobile Data Access". But when I view the capabilities in ArcGIS Server Manager for the service, the "Mobile Data Access" is not shown (MSDcapabilities.jpg) but when you expand the service in the listing (MSDcapabilities2).jpg you see it. When I tried using the toolbox to generated the mobile cache it does not allow me to select a MSD service.

Thanks

At ArcGIS Mobile 10, we support MXDs. Support for MSDs will be included in ArcGIS for Windows Mobile 10.1 release.
