IOS6 update Maps do noy integrate or work properly with Rocanda Land Tracker Does anyone have a solution to this horrible map upgrade?

Question

Installed the IOS6 Uodate on both my Iphone and Ipad.
Have found the Rocanda LSD finder and land tracker apps to not integrate with maps properly.
I use these applications constantly as I am a driver in the oilfield.
This update has made my Rocanda useless. It will not save a converted LSD location
and use another LSD location to show directions on the maps.
This used to work perfectly and was a valuable tool.
Can anyone tell me how to repair this?

Speaking as someone who happens to be named Michael Broughton ;), let me note that I did not depend on trying to parse the OWB runtime repository to determine the last run status for a given mapping. I used a set of our own tables that we use to audit various processes that run against our database.
Similar to you, we had the notion of a master process and sub-processes. So, our load could be described as:
Insert master process row with status "Started".
For each mapping to execute:
insert a sub-process row with status "started"
if the last run of the master process ran to "COMPLETE", or the last run of this master process ran to "FAILED" but there is no row for this sub-process with status "COMPLETE", then we need to run the process. run it and update the sub-process row with the return status. If status <> OK, then update master process to status "FAILED" and exit.
otherwise, If we determined that the mapping did not need to be executed, then update the sub-process row with status "COMPLETE"
We put in the stubs for the processes whether we need to run them or not so that if the load fails multiple times, each run will contain the complete list of mappings that were completed.
In point of fact, if you insert the stubs when skipping over mappings during a restart then you can condense the "do I need to run this time" logic to: Run allways unless the last master process run failed but this process succeeded.
How you want to code that query will depend entirely on how you are saving your data.
Hope this helps. I'd offer code snippets but I away from my work 'puter 'til next week.
