criehle Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Can you edit a feature Classes in a ESRI File based Geodatabase in AutoCAD Map. I know you can edit shapefiles but I can't connect to my data. The ArcSDE connection does not work b/c we have a File Geodatabase and not an ArcSDE.

chulse Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I think you can with some setup work. It seems you need to install the proper dll file first. I am not familliar with the file geodatabase, but here is what I found on personal geodatabase. From HELP: Using Open Source FDO Providers To make it easier to extend the capabilities of FDO Data Access Technology used within AutoCAD Map 3D, Autodesk has released FDO as an open source project under the Open Source Geospatial Foundation™ (OSGeo™). This has enabled developers from all over the world to tap into powerful web mapping and geospatial data access technology and develop additional FDO data providers that work with AutoCAD Map 3D. Often, developers make the providers they develop available for free. They can be integrated into AutoCAD Map 3D and then used to access additional data formats not included in the box. Examples of Third Party and Open Source Providers AvailableDescriptionOGR Provider (supports vector formats such as ESRI Personal Database, GRASS, and SDTS). Open source, available on http://fdo.osgeo.org GDAL Provider (supports raster formats such as NITF, Imagine, PCIDSK, and HDF). Open source, available on http://fdo.osgeo.orgSL-King Oracle Provider. Available on http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=8824908 Safe Software FME Provider for FDO. Available on http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=8824908 Check http://fdo.osgeo.org and http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=8824908 periodically for additional providers. If you are a developer, you can also create your own data providers. The open source version of FDO Data Access Technology and developer documentation is available on http://fdo.osgeo.org . NoteFDO Providers from sources other than Autodesk are not supported or warrantied by Autodesk. Of course, you could always export the features to shp files first...
