Yes I did notice that issue too. I assume either the example is corrupted, 
either it is a bug in the FileGDB API, either... Perhaps reporting to ESRI 
might be usefull. Or perhaps Ragi has some clues.

Relations are joins to non-spatial tables containing domain values etc. They
are relational tables.

FWIW, the error code -2147467259 is probably a Microsoft HRESULT. In hex, it
is 0x80004005, which is a generic "access is denied" error. Not that this is
much of a clue about what is going on. You could check for some kind of
permissions or access problem...

They are links between tables. Usually, between the attribute table of a
feature class and a simple (non-spatial, as Mike said) table. But you
can relate any kind of attribute tables.

Re: [gdal-dev] FGDB Opening Sample File

2011-04-29 Thread Ragi Burhum
There seems to be some misunderstandings about Relationship Classes,
so I may as well explain.

Relationship Classes come in two types

1.- Simple Relationship Classes
2.- Attributed Relationship Classes

Conceptually, they just relate one (or more) column(s) in one field to
another column(s) in another table. Besides also including cardinality
information, and enforcing referential integrity (when the underlying
db doesn't support it), they are used inside ArcGIS for display and
editing purposes. The fact that the may or may not have domains
associated with them is orthogonal to this discussion.

For the first kind (simple), they only exist in metadata tables - they
don't map to any physical tables on the db and thus should not be
mapped to anything inside OGR.

For the second kind (attributed), they do refer to actual non-spatial
tables on the db - we could map those to a non-spatial OGR table.

So bug #1 is skip simple relationship classes and enhancement #2 is
map attributed relationship classes to OGR non-spatial tables.

As far as TestData.gdb, none of the ESRI samples use it and just
calling open through the FileGDB API on it, fails, so it is corrupted
or a bug in the FileGDB beta 3 API - nothing that we can do about
that. The error returned, -2147467259 is E_FAIL (like you diagnosed
earlier Paul), and it is the most generic kind of COM Error... most of
the ESRI code relies on custom COM errors, but every once in awhile,
those errors are not propagated down the stack and the fall back when
no custom error is detected is E_FAIL. So basically, it just means
"error - that is all I can tell you sorry".

They are tables and the links between them (as far as I can tell).
