ArcGIS 9.2补丁真是不少，快把开发人员给淹没了，之前版本的ArcGIS从来没有发布过sp4，现在已经通知马上要发布sp5，修正了大量desktop、engine、server上的bug，估计这应该是9.2最后一组补丁了，记得上次Jack来北京对9.2补丁过多表示过歉意，ESRI美国的工程师为这些补丁也忙的热火朝天，对于ArcGIS Server，经过9.0和9.1两代产品的摸索，逐步将GIS for SOA从理念转变为实际应用，走了一些弯路，9.2开始才能算是定型，接下来就是ArcGIS 9.3、arcgis server javascript api，相信能更加完善，期待更好的表现。

Issues Addressed with ArcGIS 9.2 Service Pack 5

ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Engine and ArcGIS Server

• NIM004108 - ArcGIS PDF export always includes PDF layers in the exported document. There needs to be a way to disable PDF layer generation so viewers of the export file will not be able to see individual layer names.
• NIM004970 - Performing an Identify operation or interacting with the Editor task can cause SOC processes to be abandoned under heavy load.
• NIM005584 - After running the Synchronize geoprocessing tool in ArcCatalog, the SDE connections used by the process are released.
• NIM005856 - The Load Objects option does not work as expected.
• NIM006584 - The cursor icon of a custom UI tool in ArcMap changes with each click.
• NIM007166 - ArcCatalog hangs when loading very large ECW files to an SDE geodatabase.
• NIM007342 - Terrain to Raster geoprocessing tool may produce incomplete results when a problem occurs enforcing a breakline.
• NIM007442 - The red in color ramps can randomly change to a different color.
• NIM007610 - Geometries are not always simple after projection. They do not simplify due to efficiency constraints. Such geometries can be displayed unless they are clipped, which occurs when zooming in, or sending the map to a printer/output file. Clipping makes the non-simple polygon worse, and polygons are displayed inside-out. This fix in Clip performs a simple and inexpensive check for simplicity along the boundary of the clipping window. If an inconsistency is found, Clip bails out, Simplify is called, and another Clip is performed. Simplify is called only when needed.
• NIM007623 - SDE-based terrain dataset can't be previewed by a user with SELECT privilege.
• NIM008140 - ArcIMS Image Service: When selecting features in a scale-dependent sublayer, the selected feature indication (blue outline) should not be drawn on-screen when the sublayer is not drawn due to the map's current scale.
• NIM008692 - When extracting data or creating a checkout based on a selection set, the selection set can have more than 1000 features or rows.
• NIM008701 - 3D Toolbar based Natural Neighbors and TIN to Raster result is not persisted correctly for immediate use by other tools in ArcMap.
• NIM009501 - Windows NON-Administrator user cannot add a JPEG to an ArcGIS client such as ArcMap and ArcCatalog.
• NIM009632 - File geodatabase performance is poor when multiple computers whose names exceed 14 characters are accessing its data.
• NIM009652 - The polygon contiguity method (build neighbor list function), when used with the Hot Spot Analysis tool, does not include the target polygon in the list of neighbor features. As a consequence, results from the Hot Spot Analysis tool aren’t accurate.
• NIM009714 - NewMarker and NewPolygon graphic element tools do not work correctly if CompositeGraphicsLayer or Annotation Group has a spatial reference that differs from that of the data frame.
• NIM009829 - [WMS v* GetFeatureInfo]: GetFeatureInfo request with an ArcGIS Server WMS service returns no result when the feature's field values are NULL.
• NIM010212 - The Multipart To Singlepart tool fails with polygon feature classes containing very thin parts.
• NIM010294 - When double-clicking a map document or globe document to launch it from a Web page, such as ArcGIS Online, it doesn't open correctly; the application is left running in the background as a task. ArcMap, ArcGlobe, and ArcScene should open correctly when launched from a Web page, making it easy for Internet data publishers to provide map and globe documents on their Web sites to enable Desktop users to access their services easily.
• NIM010450 - SelectFeatures with a spatial query does not work when using a query geometry that is a GeometryBag with more than one feature in it.
• NIM010511 - The translation for a parameter on the Set Representation Control Point By Angle geoprocessing tool is not loading properly.
• NIM010981 - Representations do not display features with NULL geometries.
• NIM011182 - Converting geodatabase annotation to coverage annotation crashes when more than 10,000 features are converted.
• NIM011533 - ArcMap crashes after intersecting smoothed polygons.

• NIM012000 - Creating a new feature in an edit session for a feature class joined to a table stored in a DB2 database fails with the error Create Feature Task could not be completed.
• NIM012002 - Symbols in a temporal layer in an Engine application do not scale properly.
• NIM012065 - Solaris: The MosaicToNewRaster geoprocessing tool fails on Solaris 10.
• NIM012104 - Performing network analysis using the Network Analysis Web service or after programmatically copying NAContext leaks the memory associated with the network analysis layer’s input and output network analysis classes.
• NIM012153 - Microsoft Vista: Allow Copy/Paste of a personal geodatabase with managed rasters to work correctly when a copy of the personal geodatabase already exists in the target location.
• NIM012154 - Copy/Paste of a file geodatabase does not work correctly on Vista.
• NIM012188 - When the Open MXD button is used in the EngineControls sample to switch from mxd with custom layer to blank mxd, the custom layer is not unloading properly.
• NIM012216 - NAStopsRenderer crashes if it is assigned to a feature class that is not a network analysis class. This can occur when assigning the renderer to a recordset, shapefile, or geodatabase feature class that was the result of exporting out the stops network analysis class.

• NIM013965 - When choosing an ArcIMS image service in the Identify dialog's Layers drop-down list, then using the Identify tool, only those sublayers in the service that are currently turned on and drawn at the current scale should be identified. Without this fix, all the sublayers in the service are identified, which is incorrect and reduces performance.
