There are many ways to do this - it requires both C# and javascript client side.
If you are using Basic web layout there is an API to digitize and a handler so you can loop over each feature to get the coordinates. They will be returned in whatever coordinates your map is currently in. If you are using FUSION, there are some functions that you can use in the MapGuide.js file in the www\fusion\layers\MapGuide\ folder that totally match the Ajax viewer API where you can catch the points in the handler. Once javascript has the points you can post them anywhere you wish. If you are using C# you can use the MapGuide Server API to edit the dataset. You could bypass mapguide at this point and post the coordinates to an insert statement in PostGIS, SQL Server or Oracle. Or you could continue to use Javascript and post/put the coordinates to mapguide using GeoRest. You just have to format them in XML and put/post them to the site and the source data, regardless of source, will be updated. You data could be SHP, SDF, or database. georest.org (I use this when I have to update SHP and SDF files) gordon -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Need-to-draw-lines-points-possibly-polygons-to-database-tp6860154p6860584.html Sent from the MapGuide Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ mapguide-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapguide-users
