comment Examples of Beautiful Maps
I'll ask my work colleague about this next week. He studied Cartography at ETH Zurich (where Imhof worked as a professor), so he might know something about this.

comment File Geodatabase API .NET Wrapper - Determine if Table/Feature Class Is Locked
@DevdattaTengshe: Don't confuse table locks with schema locks. ISchemaLockInfo does not apply here, because it only reports the latter type of locks. The OP's current approach (attempting to get an update or insert cursor) is exactly what I would do in ArcObjects, too, to discover whether a table lock is in place. The question is whether there is a less ad-hoc method.

comment File Geodatabase API .NET Wrapper - Determine if Table/Feature Class Is Locked
I agree. My comment was made in the hope that any answer about this issue might reveal how ESRI wants us to discover table locks... the principles will likely be the same in both the File GDB API and ArcObjects. But of course the current bounty is meant to encourage File GDB API-specific answers, since that is this question's focus.

I would also be interested in an answer to this question, not just for the File Geodatabase API, but ideally also for ArcObjects.

comment How to efficiently (programmatically) determine whether two datasets have / don't have identical content?
I might in fact do something like that. Though it might not be easy making this work in every scenario without a chance of circumventing the digest computation.

Hi @PolyGeo. Thank you for the link, this tool looks very useful. However, it made me realise that I forgot to mention that I am not looking for a ready-to-use tool, but for an algorithm. I've amended my answer.

comment How to search an ITable with conditions
@FredFloete: This sounds like a different question to me, so answering in the comment section seems inappropriate. I suggest that you post your question, well, as a question, not as a comment. (Also, be somewhat more specific. What "advanced informations" are you interested in? Why did you put the relationship class into place?)

+1 for an interesting problem, and the way you present your question.

comment IGeometryBridge.GetPoints throws NotImplementedException. Am I doing something wrong?
This answer talks about QueryPoints. Does this mean that GetPoints also didn't work for you? (Or did your Gist code which uses GetPoints work?)

comment IGeometryBridge.GetPoints throws NotImplementedException. Am I doing something wrong?
This could be due to SP1. Does it also work without the for loop, i.e. if you don't initialise the array?

@blah238: I've tried this, with no difference.
