[mapserver-users] File name substitution in TILEINDEX file name?

[Lime, Steve D (MNIT)]

MapServer does not support shell-like filenames so while “544000_144000_4000_*_SAINT_PAUL.PNG” is a legal string in MapServer it will be interpreted literally.

All,

I good one for you all.  I have a current TILEINDEX that has a file naming scheme like so:

“544000_144000_4000_01_2016_SAINT_PAUL.PNG”

I was wondering if I can do something like this instead for the file name:

“544000_144000_4000_??_????_SAINT_PAUL.PNG”
or
“544000_144000_4000_*_SAINT_PAUL.PNG”

Will these names be interpreted correctly?  is there some sort of escaping needed?

Thanks

bobb
