We'll provide an update to the release schedule shortly.    Thanks, -Rex ... View more

Hi Arne,   We are actively working on the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Xamarin for release with the next generation of Runtime products (Quartz release).   Keep an eye on this blog post for additional details:  ArcGIS Runtime and Xamarin – Part 2 | ArcGIS Blog Thanks -Rex ... View more

Hi Ben,   I've reproduced the problem and logged as an issue.   It appears to occur when lines share a vertex and have the same label value.  Forked repo with some updates to illustrate: rexhansen/LabellingIssue · GitHub Thanks -Rex ... View more

While it is technically possible to use the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET (Desktop) on the server, deployment in this capacity currently violates the product license (http://www.esri.com/legal/pdfs/mla_e204_e300/english).  See the Scope of Use: Exhibit 1, Addendum 1, Section 2, Note 19.    Can you provide one or scenarios where you would like to use the Runtime SDK for .NET in this capacity? Thanks -Rex ... View more

We have seen this issue before, but reproducing it has been elusive.  Keith, you mentioned trying to create a sample app but were not able to repro.  If you guys are able to provide a sample app to reproduce at some point in the future, please share.           Thanks -Rex ... View more

You'll need to use local server to open\use MPKs, which requires a standard license.  Access to TPKs requires a basic license.  "Runtime content" encompasses many types of content.   Access to runtime geodatabases (read-only) requires a basic license.   Other types of runtime content such a networks and locators require a standard license.  Editable runtime geodatabases, which must be generated from a sync enabled feature service (for now), require a standard license to edit.  See the following page for more details on license levels and functionality: License your app—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET | ArcGIS for Developers ...

Yes, we're considering support for reprojection of local datasets, including shapefiles.  However we don't have a timeline yet for when that feature will be included.  ... View more

If using the Desktop API in the Runtime SDK for .NET, you may want to consider using local server.   You can use a map package to spin up a local map service, then leverage dynamic layers to add data on the fly.  Shapefiles added to a local map service in this fashion would be reprojected on the fly (just like they are when using a remote server aka ArcGIS Server), but it would increase the complexity and size of your app deployment.  Here's a sample: arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet/DynamicLayerAddData.xaml at master · Esri/arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet · GitHub  ...

Here's an example that shows some simple conditional logic to determine when shapefile contents need to be displayed as graphics or features. It is important to note that QueryAsync will load the entire shapefile into memory, so as Morten mentioned, memory consumption can be an issue.  The code example also shows how to limit the number of features returned using the MaximumRows property.  You can use this technique to control the number of features, and thus memory, used in your application.       Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Data.ShapefileTable table =  await Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Data.ShapefileTable.OpenAsync(filename); if (table.SpatialReference != mv.SpatialReference) {     var items = await table.QueryAsync(new Esri.ArcGISRuntime.Data.QueryFilter() { MaximumRows = 1000});                    GraphicsOverlay overlay = new GraphicsOverlay()     {         GraphicsSource = items.Select(f => new Graphic(f.Geometry, f.Attributes)),         RenderingMode = GraphicsRenderingMode.Static     };     // Define renderer for graphics overlay     // overlay.Renderer = sr;     mv.GraphicsOverlays.Add(overlay); } else {     FeatureLayer layer = new FeatureLayer(table);                  mv.Map.Layers.Add(layer); } ...

Hi John,   If you have a moment, I have a question regarding an ArcGIS Server site which appears to be owned by the Maryland Department of Transportation: http://170.93.143.161/arcgis/rest/services There are a couple feature layers in a map service that have an extent where min\max x\y are NaN and spatial reference is set to 26985.  Example: http://170.93.143.161/arcgis/rest/services/CHARTMap/CHART_Public_PC/MapServer/1 I've been unable to reproduce this behavior where min\max x\y are NaN.  Do you know how this data was prepared to exhibit these properties?

Hi Karen,    A client access policy file must be present at the root of a web server.  If IIS, often the physical folder that cooresponds with the web site root is c:\inetpub\wwwroot.  If you're using the web server included with ArcGIS Server, the physical folder that cooresponds with the web site root may be c:\program files\arcgis\server\framework\runtime\tomcat\contents\rootapp.  Here's some additional information on working with service across domain boundaries in Silverlight: http://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/LIBRARY/CC197955(VS.95).ASPX Hope this helps, -Rex ...
