Problem using SQLGeospatialDataReader & InformationLayer.GetBestView

[Brent]

If I use SQLGeospatialDataReader to populate my InformationLayer with data, the InformationLayer.GetBestView method does not work.

Even though I can see data from my InformationLayer on the map, when I debug, InformationLayer.Items is empty (has Count = 0). So when InformationLayer.Items gets passed to GetBestView method, the result is wrong.

Please help.

Here is a code snippet to illustrate.

private InformationLayer informationLayer = new InformationLayer();
public InformationLayer IL
        {
            get
            {
                return informationLayer;
            }
            set
            {
                informationLayer = value;
            }
        }

public SqlGeospatialDataReader SQLR = new SqlGeospatialDataReader();

//Use SQLR to read geospatial data from SQL Server
ReadSQLGeospatialData();

IL.Reader = SQLR;

LocationRect BestViewRect = IL.GetBestView(IL.Items);

Hi Brent,

The SQLGeospatialDataReader reads data asynchronously. So, to avoid a problem with incorrect "Best View" calculation you should handle the SQLGeospatialDataReader.ReadCompleted event which occurs when the reading complete and when the read shapes are already added to the information layer.
