[mapserver-dev] RFC 65 - Single pass query handling for 6.0

[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

Drivers that support tile indexes would continue to work "as-is". Those drivers aren't database driven so they, like shapefiles, would continue to use shape and tile indexes to retrieve records for presentation. The only way adding an additional index would make sense to me is if we relied on a result set object and passed it to getShape() or getFeature() in mapscript.

Hi Steve,

Regarding the use of tileindex as the shape index relative to a query: would this work when users define TILEINDEX in their map file (I think that is what its is used for?) Would it be better to have an additional new field?

I really think that additional MapScript save/load queries a la pre-5.6 are a welcome changes.

regards,

Hi all: I jotted down some thoughts on changes I'd like to see made for 6.0 that address shortcomings to the 5.6 single pass query
handling.  I'm looking to simplify...  We have to do something for this release on the topic. I don't think the proposed changes will
take much effort.
