[Mapserver-users] PhpMapscript - fields types

[W. Steph]

Hello list !

I can't find a way to get the types of the fields of shape objects.
I need to know if each field is a string (or varchar...) or an integer, or a 
date.

I know i can use something like this :
$fieldValue = $myShapeObj->values[$fieldName];
if (is_string($fieldValue))
{...}
if (is_int($fieldValue))
{...}

But doing this way, I won't find if the field is a date (I think is_string 
will return true with a date)
Maybe there's a solution with a layer object... I don't know... I didn't 
find any infos in mapscript reference.
Any ideas ???

Thank you
Steph
