Cannot duplicate definitions in MAPCSLIBRARY

[ChristineBao]

Report from Autodesk:

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++ This defect cannot be verified in the DEV environment +++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Unless, the following tweaks are applied

• install the dictionary files; I can provide an installer

alternatively, you can install a recent M3D which will install the dictionaries into C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Geospatial Coordinate Systems 2014

• unset the MENTOR_DICTIONARY_PATH variable in the blue command prompt (!)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

1) Start M3D 2) Run MAPCSLIBRARY 3) search for DHDN/BeTA_to_ETRF89 4) Click 'Duplicate'

Result: Error message appears.

Expected: The definition can be duplicated.

Remarks: The code does a check in
MgDev\Common\Gis\UI\CoordinateSystem\Controls\CoordinateSystemLibrary.xaml.cs::DuplicateExecuted()

private bool CheckWriteAcess() {

bool hasWriteAccess = CSDefinitionLibrary.Instance.AreDictionaryFileWriteable(); if (!hasWriteAccess) {

System.Windows.MessageBox.Show(String.Format(Properties.Resources.NoWriteAceess, CSDefinitionLibrary.Instance.GetDicitonaryDir()),

String.Empty, MessageBoxButton.OK, MessageBoxImage.Error);

} return hasWriteAccess;

}

This typically return [false].

The fix should be made in the GIS platform. There, if a 'User mentor dictionary path' is defined, the code should check the actual target - not the CSD file in [C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Geospatial Coordinate Systems 2014].
