hi there, here are a few bugs from my experiences with trying out this new feature.<br><br>- the compositing of the layers with the background looses the antialiasing... <br> example features drawn against (white) background:

</a><br><br>- polygons aren't filled if "TRANSPARENCY" keyword is present<br> without "transparency" keyword: <a href="http://www.terriscope.fr/ms_tmp/polynotrans.png">http://www.terriscope.fr/ms_tmp/polynotrans.png
</a><br> with "transparency" keyword: <a href="http://www.terriscope.fr/ms_tmp/polytrans.png">http://www.terriscope.fr/ms_tmp/polytrans.png</a><br><br>- I'm having a problem with the java mapscript version with the vm crashing with
<br>"/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.00/bin/java: symbol lookup error: /home/tom/java/mapscript/unstable/libmapscript.so: undefined symbol: _ZN3agg12vcgen_strokeC1Ev" . this happens with all line layers, and with polygon layers when color AND outlinecolor are simultaneously specified
<br><br>cheers,<br>thomas<br>

<br>with new input coming from Assefa. It looks promising so many thanks for the excellent work to date.<br><br>I don't believe there are extensions to the Windows Makefile but I did commit configure support for *nix
<br>
yesterday. Works fine on my SuSE box. Just do a --with-agg=path to agg when running configure and<br>it should work. You need agg version 2.4 at this point. Agg doesn't have install scripts so I just left it<br>where I built it (
e.g. /usr/local/src/agg-2.4). Configure will look for that type of setup or in the system libs.<br><br>To use simply plop a OUTPUTFORMAT in your mapfile like so:<br><br> OUTPUTFORMAT<br> NAME myAggRgb<br>
DRIVER AGG/PNG<br> IMAGEMODE RGB<br> END<br><br>RGB and RGBA are supported.<br><br>The AGG driver uses GD as the buffer manager, so basically AGG renders to a GD image so we can use GD<br>file writing and any of the other GD writing code. That allows us to concentrate on pieces of the rendering
<br>while still creating complete images. At the moment I believe polygons and lines are rendered using AGG<br>while markers and text fallback on their GD counterparts.<br><br>Steve<br><br><br>>>> On 3/9/2007 at 1:36 PM, in message
