[mapserver-dev] Problem with label angle since v5.0

[Steve Lime]

As it sits if you set a binding programmatically, like so:

  $label->setBinding(MS_LABEL_BINDING_ANGLE, 'myitem');

or in a map file there is no way to get at the column name. We'd need a getBinding method in MapScript so you could do something like:
  
  $label->setBinding(MS_LABEL_BINDING_ANGLE, 'myitem');
  $item = $label->getBinding(MS_LABEL_BINDING_ANGLE);

and $item would contain the string 'myitem'. This would work for you, correct?
