    421445Notice that no new GetTile overload is introduced (assuming this feature is separate from the HTTP 304 cacheability support). This is because tile access requires the same set of parameters, except that instead of a Map Definition, we can specify a TileSetDefinition instead. On the implementation side, the GetTile methods need to support TileSetDefinition as a valid resource type and be able to resolve the physical tile storage location to fetch and store tiles in from the TileSetDefinition. For a first cut implementation, it is safe to just hard-code this logic to resolve to the same physical tile cache directory that the existing MapGuide tile cache code uses.

     447The GetTileProviders method is akin to GetFeatureProviders in MgFeatureService. It is a method to assist client-side authoring tools to provide rich user interfaces for editing TileSet Definitions. A sample response looks like this:
     448
