EmptyMPK_WGS84.mpk in DynamicLayers example application

[BKuiper]

Can somebody explain to me how you can generate the empty MPK as provided in the DynamicLayers example that is hosted on the mainpage of the Runtime website:

In other words, how do you add a "Temporary Group Layer" in a MXD. I tried something similar before but couldn't generate a MPK from an empty MXD/Map.

Hi,

Empty/blank maps cannot be packaged but you can add a new group layer to the dataframe and then package the map. It's a workaround until we can provide dedicated direct data access via the API in the future.

Cheers
