[mapserver-dev] labeling weirdness in trunk

[bartvde at osgis.nl]

Hi Alan,

yes I would expect something like the 52 result.

I am using an SLD TextSymbolizer, there is no LABEL definition in my MAP
file at all:

<sld:StyledLayerDescriptor xmlns:sld="http://www.opengis.net/sld"
version="1.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld
http://schemas.opengis.net/sld/1.0.0/StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"
xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml"><sld:NamedLayer><sld:Name>AAA64</sld:Name><sld:UserStyle><sld:Name>default</sld:Name><sld:FeatureTypeStyle><sld:Rule><sld:Name>default</sld:Name><sld:TextSymbolizer><sld:Label><ogc:PropertyName
xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc">xxx</ogc:PropertyName></sld:Label><sld:Font><sld:CssParameter
name="font-family">Arial</sld:CssParameter><sld:CssParameter
name="font-size">10</sld:CssParameter></sld:Font><sld:Fill><sld:CssParameter
name="fill">#000000</sld:CssParameter></sld:Fill></sld:TextSymbolizer></sld:Rule></sld:FeatureTypeStyle></sld:UserStyle></sld:NamedLayer></sld:StyledLayerDescriptor>

Best regards,
Bart
