It appears there's a bug in the fgdapi when inserting polygons with arcs. It doesn't calculate the area correctly. It only calculates the straight sides and does not include the area the arc is creating. Once you run it through repair geometry, it fixes the calculation.

Anyone else run across this? Vince Angelo

Hi Donny,

Do you have any sample on how to work with curves using this API? mostly reading the curves points of a polygon

Any help is appreciated

Thanks!

Martin

Your better off using GDAL. ESRI hasn't updated the File Geodatabase API in over 7 years. It looks like they have abandoned it. I use Gdal.net Core, has way more features, including arcs. You can export to FGDB and a bunch of other formats.
