[Mapserver-users] Re: [Bug 270] 24-bit image processing crash

[Brent Fraser]

Steve,

  I think this can be solved with a note in the documentation.  I had
discovered the issue while experimenting with HTML Legends with layers that
referenced 24-bit raster data.

    The rule is: "Adding a CLASS section to a raster LAYER will cause the
raster to be classified."

Seems obvious to me now!

I doubt if anyone will want to classify a 24-bit raster using MapServer (as
Frank pointed out, the processing time could be significant).

Thanks!
Brent
