[Mapserver-users] WFS support

[Amit S BEHERE]

Hi,

w.r.t the question below

Am sorry for asking a wrong question. I didnot mean 4.0.1 but version 4.1
(the nightly build).

I have downloaded and compiled the nightly build for 4.1. However I would need to
get it working on a Windows machine as well. So again, repeating the
question. For the 4.1 build, is there a way I could compile it for Windows
(is there documentation regarding the same).
If I cannot do that, when might the 4.1 binary for Windows be released ?

Thanks,
Amit Behere [UCSD]
