[mapserver-dev] MS RFC 61: Enhance MapServer Feature Style Support

[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

Folks are kinda quiet... Recovering from the conference no doubt. This seems a reasonable idea. Only question I have is promoting the use of OGR styling as opposed to SLD.

Hi Devs,

I would require an implementation to extend the current STYLEITEM option to be used with further drivers in addition to OGR driver. I recall we have already been discussed this topic with the conclusion that this kind of implementation would require quite a big effort, but I expect the initial approach (based on the OGR style) could be implemented fairly easily. For this reason I've created MS RFC 61 describing the concept to be done, though the proposed changes haven't yet been implemented by me. I'd anyway be in favour of adding such solution (or a reasonable variant) to be available in the next release version (ie. MS 6.0)

The RFC can be found at:

http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/trunk/docs/en/development/rfc/ms-rfc-61.txt


Best regards,

Tamas
