SHP-files, better support
Reply Quote
Hi,

we´ve been working with LEADTools for a lot of years now (bought them here in Germany) and am trying to expand the use to reading SHP-files into our application. Unfortunately Vector Tools doesn´t read the DBFs that are coming with them. (Tried 11,13,14.5)

This doesn´t have to be a problem, since we´re working in Visual FoxPro anyway and so reading the DBFs is daily business, BUT Leadtools don´t seem to read the tags, that link the SHP-items to the DBF-items so we can´t really say where to put the connected data. The link is missing..... This is poor functionality.

So the question is: Is there any way to access this tags? Are there any plans for the future to put this tags into the vector-structure somewhere (plenty of fields that would be suitable for the purpose)?

It would make the SHP-file support really usuable.

Thanks!

- Martin Hildebrandt

Many thanks for that!

Is there any kind of timeframe that you think that could be done within? (1 month, 1 year, as long as the pyramids last.....)?:)

Best regards

Our engineers did not give us a time estimate on when they will implement this feature (if they decided to add it), but feel free to contact support@leadtools.com in the future to inquire about this feature.
