[Mapserver-users] Mapscript and Java

[Frank Rittinger]

Hello Will,

I'm building a Servlet/Mapserver application where I use the 
"QUERY_STRING" debug feature of mapserver and call mapserver with the 
appropriate query string through a Runtime.exec() wrapper from my 
servlets.  Then I parse the output of mapserver back into my servlet, do 
some stuff with it, and send the information back to the browser.

It works surprisingly well.

This is somewhat similar to the WMS approach ...

Bye,	Frank
