  Heya Pradeep,

  Will see what I can find for you over the weekend, I will be able to
elaborate on:

  The programmatic flow of MapServer.
  Architectural Design of Mapserver.

  External Library information is a bit limited at this stage, but a bit of
scouring on the weekend should get you enough to get you on level pegging.

  What are the functions that need to be exposed as Interfaces in COM ( A
Guideline). <--- Interesting really, depends on your project requirements,
are you looking to develop a intensive COM DLL or an resource economic DLL
with specific functions in mind? If the latter you will need to specify what
sort of functionality you are hoping to achieve and from that I can map the
required interfaces. You may want to also have a look at the DM Solutions
"Mapscript" add -on for mapserver that provides PHP access to the API for
ideas on how to get started with your COM model.

  I'm also a registered user of "Artifact" -----> like Copernic for
programmers

  We've been trying to get mapserver launched in here so a wider development
community has input on mapserver development. But otherwise, if you get
stuck on any IT related issue, the guys and girls in here will generally
help you out.

  Well I'd better get cracking now, but will get back to you with the info
shortly. I'd be interested to hear about any developments you make in regard
to COM development for mapserver. We kinda went the other way on it when
.NET was released but would be able to apply it to some inhouse projects for
testing/feedback and the like.

  Kindest regards,

             Thank you, I am particularly interested in these areas:
        a.. The programmatic flow of MapServer.
        b.. What are the functions that need to be exposed as Interfaces in
COM ( A Guideline).
        c.. Information on the various external
libraries(gd,libjpeg,freetype,regex...etc.) interaction with MapServer.
        d.. Any information on the Architectural Design of mapserver.
      I will be very thankful if you can help me with the documentation on
any of these areas.

      Heya Pradeep,

      We've been working pretty heavily with Mapserver over the last few
months in order to develop a .NET wrapper for Mapserver.
      What areas of mapserver are you looking for documentation/info on, I
may be able to help.

      Kindest regards,
