ArcSDE Connections

[Shaun Kolomeitz]

Dear uDIG-devel,

We are having problems connecting to ArcSDE from uDIG 1.1.1 (release) so I tried the 1.2.0 (TRUNK) and am still having no luck.

Below is a copy of the ConcoleLog contents if that helps.

Many thanks,

Shaun

Hi Shuan:

Based on this and your other exception I would like to ask:

a) what version of arcsde

b) have you supplied uDig with the arcsde jars it requires (we cannot distributed them ourselves; there is a preference page for you to hook them up to uDig).

I will test trunk tomorrow with Mark; in the mean time I will ask Gabriel if he could please test. The http://udig.refractions.net/download/unstable/ page contains a link to the unanounced 1.2-M8 (since we are testing it with PostGIS / Oracle / ArcSDE prior to announcing the release).

Regards,

Jody

Jody,

a) ArcSDE 9.2

b) Yes I have supplied the ArcSDE JARS (when you first add an ArcSDE Layer it asks for them)

Cheers,

Shaun

Thanks for the help guys,

I can now confirm that access to ArcSDE 9.2 works well for Vector layers with uDIG 1.2.M8.

With over 500 layers in our Corporate ArcSDE Db the first access takes ages (over 30mins) to list the layers, but after that its all good !

Can’t say the same for Rasters though (for the meantime this isn’t a great concern).

Regards,

Shaun

Nice; did you need to add the ibm jar as well?

It is pulling down the titles and bounds for each layer; I wonder if
there is a faster way (it should be doing that in a background thread
...).

Gabriel has added raster support int he last 6 months and we have not
added it into uDig yet (ie support is there at the programming level
we just have not made the user interface for it yet in uDig).
