All the FileGDB API are SUPPORTED:


Addition Funcationality in ADO.NET provider for FileGDB API:

* All spatial queries are supported (contains, crosses, touch, within, disjoint, overlap, intersect)
* The provider includes a geometry library which includes Point, MultiPoint, Envelope, Polyline, Polygon
* The spatial query in the ADO.NET provider for the FileGDB are not limited to the envelope, any geometry
from the provided geometry library and any spatial relation can be used in the query.
* Geometries can be converted to different format such as SqlGeometry, SqlGeography, OGIS GML format, and others
* The provider also includes a set of proxies that allows you to work with the FileGDB schema objects. So
you can work wit
