[mapserver-users] Java - Mapserver

Aside from new development of an entire MapServer java base...

One way I've done some integration is by using a java bean that acts to
wrap a CGI instance of the mapserver. See the attached source code for a
first attempt. This was written to allow a java developer to embed maps
with dynamically generated points (on his side, in java) into to his
application. On the MapServer side you just have a basic template that
allows for the return of MapServer variables in a java collection
(hash). Simple, but effective in some instances. I've included a sample
template file as well...

Remember, just a first attempt at doing something like this.

HI,

I have just installed a mapserver and the demo is working ok for me. I

would like to use Java, JSP with mapserver to generate maps. I have
windows 
2000 server, also with Tomcat. Is there any "How to do" information 
available? or can I have some sample demo projects?. I don't know how I
can 
proceed. Any help inthis regard is greatly appreciated.

Giri
