MapGuide Enterprise Server Service Pack 1 for Windows

We are pleased to announce the release of Service Pack 1 for Autodesk MapGuide Enterprise 2007.

The main focus for Service Pack 1 is to enhance performance and improve stability. In particular the MapGuide team has greatly improved performance for Oracle Spatial databases. Initial results show that the times to rebuild maps have been cut by up to 90% on specific Oracle Spatial data sets, Testing by customers and AEs also validate these results (quoting Olivier Bucaille "a prospect has seen the Oracle access with an early version and with the Service Pack 1, and is ecstatic with the improvement of stability & performances on a huge Oracle DB"). Performance is also considerably enhanced in the Service Pack for the other databases supported by MapGuide Enterprise (e.g., Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, SDE).

Among the more than 30 defects fixed in the SP1 are the following:

• Improvements in installation and licensing
• SHP file enhancements
• ODBC improvements
• Support for comma as decimal separator
• Better server error reporting
• Improved feature re-projection and selection
• Support for Oracle 10g R2
