 == Overview ==
 
-Add support for AJAX based selection wheee 
+Add support for Ajax based search and selection when the identity property is a double. 
 
 == Motivation ==
 
-
+FDO maps some database types like an Oracle NUMBER to an Fdo decimal.  The decimal type is a double precision number.  MapGuide does not fully support interaction with double precision identity properties.  This RFC adds the required API to support this. 
 
 == Funding/Resources ==

 == Proposed Changes ==
 
-
+* Add the following API to MgSelectionBase
+{
+    // Add a single selection to the set where the identity property is a double.
+    void AddFeatureIdDouble(MgLayerBase* layer, CREFSTRING className, double identifier);  
+}
+* Modify the Server and Web Extensions code bases to map the Fdo decimal type to an !MgDoubleProperty.
 
 == Implications ==
 
-
+None.  This is new API only.
 
 == Test Plan ==
+
+Validate that a feature class with a double precision identity property can be selected and searched upon in the Ajax viewer.
