Is it too much to ask for the metadata to be gathered from the only spatial column present in the base table? So now I have to revert back to sde command line? How many more versions is that going to be around? ... View more

Sql server. Geometry type. I am creating the view using catalog. I only modify the where clause, not fields. Are you saying that views created with sde command line are different than views created in catalog? I thought we were supposed to abandon command line? ... View more

At 10.1, it is normal for a Spatial View, or for that matter any table or database view with a spatial column, to initially show up as a table. Once you click it, ArcGIS will read the first record(s?) and determine the geometry type and show it in the catalog tree. This behavior is because ArcGIS can't "know" the feature/geometry type beforehand, as it isn't "stored" like in a table registered with an ESRI geodatabase, where such system metadata is stored in the ArcSDE Repository. Here is the issue I am seeing. I can create a spatial view and it renders fine in catalog and ags. But if i modify the sql OR if a situation arises that makes my view devoid of records then all of the sudden sde and ags get really 'stupid' and have no clue what my geometry type or coord sys are for that view. Am i to believe that a spatial view MUST always have at least one record in it? I work with data that expires after a certain time. So as time elapses records become removed from a view such that at some points in time there will be no data that satisfies the view. When that happens everything goes downhill. ... View more

after a little digging i think there is yet another option - just call the rest endpoint from C# passing in variables as an HttpWebRequest. I suppose for this to work my requirements would not have to be to exotic so that the generic rest api endpoint would suffice. ... View more
