[Mapserver-users] Help Request / datum shifts

[Ed McNierney]

No, it will not.  Read the PROJ FAQ at http://www.remotesensing.org/proj/faq.html - you don't need to recompile PROJ, but only to provide the datum shift files in the right place; the FAQ will show you how to do that.

Thanks Ed. I reviewed the page, only to discover the next obstacle. I don't have Microsoft
Visual C++, nor would I know what to do with it if I did. :-(
I downloaded ms36gif_wms.zip  from http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/win32binaries.html . That
page indicates Proj.4 projection support.
Will mapserv -v give any indication as to whether or not datum shift support is included?
