[mapserver-users] Include in Mapfile

[Ed McNierney]

Pedro -

I use the C preprocessor to handle map file INCLUDEs and DEFINEs - it's a tool that's easily available and does the job well.  Just create the map files as if they were C source code, and then run the files through the preprocessor to generate the final map files for MapServer.

Hi all,
I'm working in a very large mapfile and I think that if in new versions of
Mapserver coud be possible to use in the mapfile a include directive to
include other files would be welcome, becouse if it where possible I can
sepparate the mapfile in little mapfiles more easy to read and mantain.

Regards.
