Enhancement: Command line / batch for saved bulk copy defniition

Would be useful to be able to save a bulk copy definition (input file, 
input schema, input class, copy spatial contexts, spatial and attribute 
filters, output file, output schema, output class) and then call this bulk 
copy (with an appopriate delete of the target file) from the command line.

Support schema updates on bulk copy target

Implement Bulk Copy Option: Apply Schema on target

if true will ignore the mappings specified and instead will apply the
*full* source schema and classes to the target.

This option will be true if specified by the user or if the target
connection has no schemas.

This option is needed for the Express Bulk Copy commands.

Defect: Tabs stay open when connection is closed.

Tabs (such as Spatial Context Management, Schema Management, etc) stay 
open, even when the connection they refer to is removed, causing unhandled 
exceptions on subsequent actions in these tabs.

I would suggest prompting the user when they delete a connection with open 
panels, and then closing them on deletion.

Seperation between FDO and FDOToolbox

The current layout of the release has all files in the same folder.
This makes it difficult to replace FDO with a new release.

I would like there to be a folder called FDO, and in it should be all the
files from the FDO SDK. This will also remove ambiguities regarding the
files "changelog.txt" and "license.txt".

Convert query pane in data preview to a tabbed interface

Convert the current query pane in the data preview control into a tabbed
interface with the following tabs:

- Standard (Default)
   - Standard Query fields
- Aggregates
   - Select Aggregate fields
- SQL
   - SQL text box

Use fdo capability checking to disable/hide unsupported elements.

Defect: Object Explorer can be closed, but cannot be re-opened

Would recommend either not allowing the object explorer to be closed, or 
creating a "View" menu that allows the user to re-enable it.

Bulk Copy: Verify target supports data types found in source

The Bulk Copy process will fail if the target connection does not support
the data types found in the source connection.

Eg. Copy to SHP will fail if the source connection has double Data
Properties as SHP does not support them.

Use different file extensions for various configuration files

Currently, all configuration files (saved connections, tasks, schema
definitions) all have the .xml file extension. While they are true there is
potential for mixing up these files (eg. Loading a schema definition as a
saved connection) as they all share the same file extension.

Include the following file extensions.

- .conn for saved connections
- .schema for saved Feature Schema definitions
- .task for saved tasks

Modify all file pickers to use these new file extensions.

Store the Object Explorer's context menu items inside an xml file

Currently, the Object Explorer's menus are hard-coded via the designer.

The Object Explorer's context menus should be driven from an xml file, just
like the main application's menus, making customisation easier by simply
editing the xml file.

application will say "Schema(s) applied" but when the Object Explorer
refreshes, the properties are unchanged.

Titles of connection-bound tabs should be of the format [Tab Name] - [Connection Name]

If there are lots of tabs open, it can get confusing with the currently
(non-existent) tab naming scheme. Connection-bound tabs should follow the
format: [Tab Name] - [Connection Name]. This way the user can determine
which connection this tab is related to.

Original issue reported on code.google.com by [email protected] on 23 Jul 2008 at 10:25

IConnectionBoundCtl control types should be single-instance (per-connection)

Currently, any connection bound tab instance (eg. Schema Management for
<conn>) can be opened many times for the same connection. This obviously
introduces the possiblity of data corruption/conflicts (eg. Multiple Schema
Management tabs for the same connection)

A mechanism needs to be in place to prevent multiple tabs of the same
content instance where such things should not be allowed

Enhancement: Allow Save As when modifying SDF schema

I'm not sure what the best way of implementing this is, but it would be 
nice to be able to modify an existing schema via the GUI and then save it 
out as a new SDF file.  

I couldn't find any way of doing this other than saving the current schema 
out as a text file and then modifying it manually (where I promptly got 
lost).

Enhancement: Spatial context enhancements

It would be nice to be able to:

- Pick spatial contexts from a list.  Guessing you’d have to hard-code 
this?

- Retrieve the bounds from the source data with a "fetch" button that 
allows you to pick the Schema and Class(es?) to extract the bounds from.

Bulk Copy Control: Allow properties to be un-mapped

close and re-open the tab. 

Allow properties to be un-mapped.

Add CommandType enum support for commands

Currently, all commands can be invoked from the application console.

The reality is that some commands are never meant to be invoked from the
application console, so we need a way to determine a command's permissible
modes of execution.

Add a new enum property Type to the Command class which is of the type
CommandType with the following values:

Console = 1
UI = 2
All = 3

If a command is of type CommandType.Console it can only be invoked from the
console.

If a command is of type CommandType.UI it can only be invoked from the user
interface element (ie. toolbar or menu)

If a command is of type CommandType.Console | CommandType.UI is can be
invoked from both

Command entries of both MenuMap.xml and OEMenuMap.xml will also be
verified. Commands of type CommandType.Console will be omitted from any
menus or toolbars.

Geometry field in data preview should be in text form

Enhancement: Allow user to create "working" directory

Currently, every time a new file picker dialog box is opened, it defaults 
to the fdo toolbox startup directory.

It would be nice if this could remember the last-used directory, and also 
if the user could define a working directory that would be used for the 
initial dialog in a session.

Support Pending Connection Property Values for Generic [Connect / Create Data Store] dialogs

For FDO providers such as MySQL connection is a two-step process.

First step is to get the initial values required for connection
[Username/Password/Service]

When connecting this will move the connection state to pending, as it
requires a second set of connection properties [DataStore] to complete the
connection.

The current Connect/Create Data Store dialogs will fail completely on such
providers.

Bulk Copy Control: Read-Only properties are not omitted from property mapping

Memory allocation failed when previewing large data sets

A "memory allocation failed" error will occur when previewing large sets of
feature data. This occurs because when calling the IGeometry.Text over many
iterations, it will eventually exhaust the memory.

See remarks for get_Text():

http://fdo.osgeo.org/files/fdo/docs/FDO_API_managed/dc/d19/class_o_s_geo_1_1_f_d
_o_1_1_geometry_1_1_i_geometry_imp_8f476e6f5b7b6a94bb86551b36dccb9c.htm

There needs to be a way to explicity free this memory. Invoking Dispose()
on the IGeometry instance does not work :-(

Bulk Copy: Custom Copy Spatial Context Methods

It it becoming clear that even though FDO is a GENERIC API, certain
providers have certain corner cases prevent a generic approach to copying
across spatial contexts.

Instead, delegate this functionality to an ICopySpatialContextOverride
interface:

public interface ICopySpatialContextOverride
{
    void CopySpatialContext(IConnection source, IConnection target);
}

Those providers that have specific needs can implement this interface and
implement that method.

The BulkCopyTask class will include a new property:

public ICopySpatialContextOverride CopySpatialContextOverride
{
    get;
    set;
}

During the bulk copy process if this property is set it will call its
CopySpatialContexts() instead of the built-in one.

This way, we can "bolt-on" additional behaviour to handle these corner cases.

Include two implementations to handle these corner cases:

ShpCopySpatialContextOverride
MySqlCopySpatialContextOverride
