R: [Mapserver-users] .tab files problems again

Hi, 

I've got the same problem too with symbols...I would like to read the arrows of a .tab file in mapserver: the pb is that I can read the position but not the orientation of the arrows which is contained in the "Style" line of the .tab (see under).
when I read my file arrow.tab with ogrinfo it turns me these properties for the arrow layer:

Layer name: arrow
Geometry: Point
Feature Count: 267349
Extent: (6.682870, 36.681040) - (18.495850, 46.895265) Layer SRS WKT:
GEOGCS["unnamed",
    DATUM["WGS_1984",
        SPHEROID["WGS 84",6378137,298.257223563],
        TOWGS84[0,0,0,0,0,0,0]],
    PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
    UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]]
LABEL: String (70.0)
OGRFeature(arrow):1
  LABEL (String) =
  Style = SYMBOL(a:322,c:#4144ae,s:13pt,id:"mapinfo-sym-111.ogr-sym-1")
  POINT (8.85458500 45.96559000)

OGRFeature(arrow):2
  LABEL (String) =
  Style = SYMBOL(a:322,c:#4144ae,s:13pt,id:"mapinfo-sym-111.ogr-sym-1")
  POINT (8.85458500 45.96559000)
........

In the mapfile, I define my arrow layer like this:

LAYER
  NAME freccie_navtech
  PROJECTION
  "proj=longlat"
  "ellps=intl"
  "no_defs"
  END
  STATUS OFF
  DATA arrow#chiave_in_piazzale_segesta#arrow#vie3_polyline
  CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
  CONNECTION  "c:\mapserver\itasca\data\arrow.tab"
  STYLEITEM "AUTO"
  TYPE point
   CLASS
    #STYLE
    #  SYMBOL arrow
    #  size 20
      COLOR 88 88 245
      #ANTIALIAS TRUE
    #END
  END
END

I think I can't recognize the id mapinfo-sym-111 which represents the arrow...but the position of the default point symbol is right on the map. Like Daniel Morissette said to me, mapserver seems to ignore the angle value coming from STYLEITEM AUTO for point symbols.
Do you know something about these 2 problems (recognizing the right point symbol and managing the orientation information of this point symbol which is contained in the variable "a")?
Thanks a lot !! :)
Yvain.

Hi,

I have a similar problem and i have checked my .tab file with ogrinfo. Can you help me and determine what type and coding should i use for this .tab file?

thanks

From,
Zeliang

This is what i've got using ogrinfo:


Layer name: Msia_Mainroads
Geometry: Line String
Feature Count: 3662
Extent: (-85297.812205, 102267.713704) - (2090681.069111, 829390.210029) Layer SRS WKT:
PROJCS["unnamed",
       GEOGCS["unnamed",
               DATUM["WGS_1984",
                       SPHEROID["WGS 84",6378137,298.257223563],
                       TOWGS84[0,0,0,0,0,0,0]],
               PRIMEM["Greenwich",0]
               UNIT["degree",0.0174532925199433]],
       PROJECTION["Transverse_Mercator"],
       PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],
       PARAMETER["central_meridian",105],
       PARAMETER["scale_factor",0.9996],
       PARAMETER["false_easting",500000],
       PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
       UNIT["Meter",1.0]]
Rd_name: String (50.0)
Rd_No: String (50.0)
Type: String (50.0)

This is the coding i am using for this layer:

LAYER
  NAME 'Msia_Mainroads'
  TYPE line
  STATUS DEFAULT
  CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
  CONNECTION "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\VesselTracking\Data\Msia_Mainroads.TAB"
  STYLEITEM "AUTO"
  MAXSCALE 5000000.0
  CLASS
    NAME 'Msia_Mainroads'
  END
  PROJECTION
    "AUTO"
  END
END # Layer
