The MapClass object corresponds to the IMapClassDef interface in the Mapping Relationships diagram. In general, there is a MapClass object in the tool schema for each Smart P&ID class (ItemType) that needs to be published or retrieved. MapClass is referred to as SPMapClassDef in the Schema Editor. The properties and relationships for a MapClass can be viewed in the Edit Map Class Definition dialog box.
