[Mapserver-users] MapServer and ASP.Net

[Jeremy Wiebe]

Hi there,

First time posting.  My company is in the process of building an
ASP.NET-based app with mapserver.  So far it is working just great!  We have
an aspx page that sits in front of the mapserver and translates the incoming
requests into mapserver-specific requests.  The aspx page then returns the
mapserver-generated image to the client (or the error XML if an error
occurs).

Hi everyone,

I hate to post this message again, but I am hopeful that now that the MUM2
is over the MapServer Gurus will be able to assist me.


Can ASP.Net be used to design websites and communicate with the MapServer
cgi exe?  Any assistance would be useful, we are an ASP shop looking to move
into the MapServer world and we would like to leverage our ASP knowledge.
If one can use ASP what are some of the pitfalls that we may face - i.e..
Writing our own wrappers and the maintenance of them could be a bit of a
challenge.


I searched the archives because I assume this question has been asked a lot
but I could not locate any conclusive answers.


Thanks in advance, I will summarize the responses for everyone.

Ross
