join dbf item

[Stephen Lime]

It's not in the code right now. It's not that it isn't technically feasable it's just that
it would kill performance. I assume you want to annotate and/or classify based
on this external data? I can look into it for a future release but it won't be added
real soon.

You can do this using mapscript.

Dear Steve and Co.,

we have an application that
we need to get attribute saved
in external dbf by using 'link'
or 'join' item.

Is is possible to do 'joinitem'
on-the-fly.

I've just seen that you can
query 'joined item' during
querying.


Could you pls help us.

Regards,
