Hi Devs,<br><br>Thanks to all who provided comments on this proposal. I did some reasonable modifications in RFC-61 in order to make the things more straightforward. The latest version of RFC 61 can be found here:<br><a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/trunk/docs/en/development/rfc/ms-rfc-61.txt">http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/trunk/docs/en/development/rfc/ms-rfc-61.txt</a><br>
<br>Here are the key changes I've made in the document as of the last update:<br><br>- Support for setting the mapserver STYLE and CLASS definitions as style strings in addition to the OGR style format.<br>- Support for auto identifying the actual style format, which allows to use multiple formats per layer. <br>
- This new addition will only affect the STYLEITEM "mystyleattribute" setting, and we leave the behaviour of STYLEITEM "AUTO" as it stands now. (By calling the diver specific LayerGetAutoStyle in this case)<br>
<br>A working implementation can be found as a patch in the corresponding ticket: <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3544">http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3544</a><br><br><br>Any feedback in this topic is highly welcomed. If no reasonable objections received, I'm planning to call for a vote to approve this RFC in the next week.<br>
<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Tamas<br><br><br><br>
