[mapserver-users] Help with Java MapScript Compile for Window s

[Greg Mader]

Hi Dan,

I need to back up a bit, and ask what the current status of Java MapScript
is?  I know that Steve has been working on it, and I would like to use it
for a class project with some classmates.  The instructor is using JSP,
beans, and lots of other java stuff, not PHP :(   

Here is the deal that I will offer:  There is a team of five of us that need
to get a simple project done for class.  We would use Java Mapscript to do
this, and document the heck out of it, and contribute this doc back to the
project.  What we need now is some guidance on the status of Java Mapscript,
the limitations, etc, as well as any general guidance for how to proceed.

Thoughts?

Hi,

Can anyone provide a brief description of the steps needed to compile 
MapScript Java on Windows?  I use Win2000 and have downloaded the Borland 
free C++ compiler as well as the SWIG 1.3.11 for windows.  I have made mods 
to the Java Mapscript Makefile provided with the nightly build and end up 
with errors when running make, but also get .java files out.  What should I 
expect to see?

Thanks,

Dan Barron
