MapGuide read DWG problem!

[josephsia]

Hi Pal,

I got a problem to read DWG file. Let's say, I have a DWG file call "test.dwg" and open by Map6. At the same time, I try to open "test.dwg" in mapguide but it prompt me a error message "An error occured in the data source... Unable to gain read access to the DWG file... Please check it is not use by another application." Is there any way which can allow me to open those DWG file at the same time by different application? It's look funny, if it is not working in this way because mapguide only use those DWG file for browsing. I hope it will not be a big problem for me. thanks.

This is an AutoCAD limitation and you will not be allowed to open the
file
in two sessions, whether one is AutoCAD and the other is MapGuide. 
You
could use Autodesk Map DWG attach and query functionality to get around
this
or set up a daily script to copy the needed DWG's to a location that
only
MapGuide uses.
