Description
Browsing available DSNs in Maestro's ODBC editor currently display a not implemented message.
Implementation is actually quite simple. The FDO ODBC provider already does DSN enumeration, and this functionality is exposed through the GETCONNECTIONPROPERTYVALUES mapagent call or the MgFeatureService.GetConnectionPropertyValues() API. The problem is that this backend support is not exposed through the ServerConnectionI interface.
A new API needs to be added to ServerConnectionI:
string[] GetConnectionPropertyValues(string provider, string propertyName, string partialConnString);
This will map to MgFeatureService.GetConnectionPropertyValues() for LocalNativeConnection and will map to the GETCONNECTIONPROPERTYVALUES mapagent call for HttpServerConnection
Once this is implemented, it a simple case of implementing a simple dialog that displays the values returned by this API.
