Attribute Descriptions for SHAPEWORKSPACE:

Attribute	Usage	Back to Top
codepage	Sets ID of codepage used for all DBF tables from this workspace; all available codepages are in ArcIMS3.0/Server/codepage directory.
directory	Directory containing shapefiles. UNC pathnames can be used (\\myComputer\shapefiledirectory).
geoindexdir	Directory where geocoding index is built.
name	Workspace name. Must be unique among all data sources.
shared	When set to "true", the ArcIMS Spatial Server checks if a shapefile has been modified outside of ArcIMS. While a shapefile is being editied, ArcIMS sends a message to the ArcIMS Spatial Server log files saying that an update is in progress. When set to "false", the ArcIMS Spatial Server does not check whether a shapefile has been updated. Access to the shapefile is faster, but the integrity of the shapefile is at risk if it is modified. It is recommended to use the default of "true" unless safeguards are in place to assure that the shapefile is not edited.
