[mapguide-users] Search feature of two Layer (Overlapped)

[Paul Spencer]

Dhirendra,

there is no built in function to do this, but the web api is rich and  
you can accomplish this with some scripting in your favourite  
scripting language.

You can create a custom command in the task pane that has a single  
button 'find'.  You need to set up the task in Studio to pass the  
selection.  In your server-side code, you can get the selection  
object from the current map, get the feature (polygon) of the  
selection, then open the feature source associated with the voting  
booth layer and query it using the polygon as a spatial filter.  Then  
you can output whatever you like about the voting booths and it will  
show up in the task pane again.

There are many examples of this kind of thing, but nothing that does  
specifically what you are looking for.

I would guess this would be about 100 lines of code in PHP and a  
couple of hours of effort for an experienced mapguide developer.  For  
someone who is experienced in PHP but not with the mapguide API, it  
will take several days to understand how the API works and implement  
this properly.

Cheers

Paul
