[Mapserver-users] Access to "FEAUTRE" using MapScript

[Sean Gillies]

Manuel, Lowell:

There's been a layerObj.addFeature() in the SWIG mapscript for some
time, but is absent from PHP mapscript.

Lowell, I'm with you on this ... I don't think that inserting feature
data into the mapObj is a good practice.  But the capability is there.

cheers,
Sean
