[Mapserver-users] Graticule support not working?

[Ed McNierney]

John -

Thanks for the help.  I tried both a simple GRID/END block and one with a few statements in it.  Neither worked.  Thanks for confirming that the code should be at the LAYER level; your original email seems to be only current documentation for the feature, and it's got it inside the FEATURE block.

I certainly have complete PROJ support; I'm trying this on Windows right now.  I can update and run this on our Linux systems, but I usually update those AFTER I get a Windows build stable.  Off the top of my head there doesn't seem to be anything OS-specific that should matter.

If someone is running with a current (this week or so) CVS build and can make GRID work, let me know.  I'll probably fire up the debugger, boldly going (yet again) into code I've never visited before...

I was hoping someone would use this code, but this is not what I hoped
WRT results...

The GRID was moved from inside FEATURE to the LAYER level, as you've
discovered.  I have not tested again on Win32 since the merge, so I need
to come up to date and retest.  I'll post with results when I complete
testing.

This sounds like an uninitialized variable in the GRID generation.  Sis
you just specify GRID, END in the map file, or try other parameters ?
Do you have PROJ compiled in and what environment are you running, Linux
?

Well, if you put it at the FEATURE level now, you get an error, and if
you pull it up one level (inside the LAYER block), that seems to be
where the code expects it but it causes MapServer to hang.

Hmm.  I've got code from around Feb 12 -17 ish that works ok, produces a
grid.  The GRID structure is at the FEATURE level.
