[mapguide-users] MGOS 4.0 and REST

[Jackie Ng]

mapguide-rest has not been maintained for years now due to competing
priorities in real life and on other projects.

I am assuming by MGOS 4.0 you are using the current preview 3 release. If
you are using my vanilla SWIG sandbox branch then I can say mapguide-rest
will definitely not work right now as that is still targeting PHP 5.6 and
the vanilla SWIG branch now bundles PHP 8.

Assuming you are on the preview 3 release that still bundles PHP 5.6, then
if you are using the 1.0 RC5 release I can say that release will not work
because it has a class that collides with a class of the same name in the
MapGuide API (MgGeoJsonWriter). All I can say is try building mapguide-rest
from git master (which renames this conflicting class) and see if that
works with your preview 3 installation.

Otherwise I would just hold off on trying to use mapguide-rest with MGOS
4.0. The next preview release of MGOS 4.0 when it drops, will ship with PHP
8.1, which means mapguide-rest will *definitely* not work for reasons
already stated above. There will need to be dev work (which I currently do
not have time for) to migrate mapguide-rest over to PHP 8.1. So all things
considered mapguide-rest will not be usable with MGOS 4.0 in the
foreseeable future until at least the final release of MGOS 4.0 is out the
door. Only then can I reasonably invest some time into migrating over
mapguide-rest.

As an aside, I am also interested in how you set up your VSCode for PHP
debugging. I only got this to work for debugging PHP scripts that are run
from the command-line. I never got this to work for PHP code running on a
web server.
