Let me think on that. Actually I'd like to remove whichShapes() from mapscript and force users through a query method. I don't think
it's worth the headache to support that method. I should have never added it...

When queryObj's were introduced in 5.6 the mapscript interfaces to the various query methods were unchanged. Users still passed the same arguments and do not access a queryObj directly. Instead, a queryObj is populated within the wrapper code based on the user arguments and the queryObj is passed on to the underlying query function. I don't see that changing.



I mean if I call whichShapes from mapscript how would I set queryObj to denote the purpose of the query? Or we would add some extra initialization for this in layer.i assuming a single row forward only access is taking place?
