Hi Paul -
Thanks for the ideas. My code was based on the developer guide / shebogoyan
sample code provided with the install.
More or less I took the sample code, modified it for my use to get one layer to
show up, then cloned the functionality to get it to work for several layers.
There is one big difference between the sample program and what I've written,
namely that due to problems with filtering on a layer w/PostGIS, I am querying
an existing feature of points, getting the lat long, and then creating points
on the fly using those values, creating new layers based on the properties of
each point, and putting the layers back into the repository.
I'm not sure I am explicity cloning a feature from the library and associating
it into the session or not.
(Apologies in advance for this being so long winded)
At a high level, here is what I'm doing:
1) Collecting user input.
2) Identifying records in the db that fit the users selection criteria. These
records have lat long and geometry associated with them.
3) Create a resource service:
$resourceService =
$siteConnection->CreateService(MgServiceType::ResourceService);
3) Create a feature service for each type of point / layer I need to create:
$routeFeatureService =
$siteConnection->CreateService(MgServiceType::FeatureService);
4) Open the map.
5) Create a class definition for each type of point / layer I need to create.
6) Define class properties for each class created.
7) Create a feature schema for each class, and associating the class definition
to it.
$routeFeatureSchema = new MgFeatureSchema($routeSchemaName, "Point
schema for Routes");
$routeFeatureSchema->GetClasses()->Add($routeClassDefinition);
8) Creating resource identifiers:
$routeFeatureSourceName =
'Library://COT_WebViewer/BaseMap/Data/PostGisData.FeatureSource';
$routeResourceIdentifier = new
MgResourceIdentifier($routeFeatureSourceName);
Here, I am using the 'Library:' prefix, but it seems to be necessary. (?) If
I don't put a valid path, but try 'Session:' instead, it bombs out.
9) Creating sdf parameters
$sdfParams = new MgCreateSdfParams("ArbitraryXY", $wkt,
$routeFeatureSchema);
10) Creating a new feature source:
$routeFeatureService->CreateFeatureSource($routeResourceIdentifier,
$sdfParams);
*? Do I need to perform an additional operation at this point to have
the resultant feature source associated with the session only?*
11) Looping through database results, create points of appropriate types, add
them to property collections.
12) Adding the property collections to the feature source:
$cmd = new MgInsertFeatures($routeClassDefName,
$routeBatchPropertyCollection);
$routeFeatureCommandCollection = new
MgFeatureCommandCollection();
$routeFeatureCommandCollection->Add($cmd);
$routeFeatureService->UpdateFeatures($routeResourceIdentifier,
$routeFeatureCommandCollection, false);
? Is this final call modifying the features in the library and
not the session?
13) Create a new layer definition, and layer resource. Add the layer resource
to the map.
14) Save the map back to the session repository:
$sessionIdName = "Session:".$sessionId."//COT_Utilities.Map";
$sessionResourceID = new MgResourceIdentifier($sessionIdName);
$sessionResourceID->Validate();
$map->Save($resourceService, $sessionResourceID);
Any and all insight is appreciated!

Hi pD,
it sounds as if you are modifying something in the Library:// rather
than making a copy in the Session:// and modifying it there (either
your Layer or FeatureSource I'd guess). Perhaps you could describe
what the code does (in general terms) and we might be able to point
out where you should be using the Session instead.
Cheers
Paul
