[Mapserver-users] virtual layers befor map file layers

[Gijs Epping]

Well i understand that but how can I add the dynamic layer before the
map layers it is now like this:

$gpoMap = ms_newMapObj("mapfiles/test.map");
virtual_layers($gpoMap);

One content of the virtual_layer function looks like this:
$layer1 = ms_newlayerObj($map);
$layer1->set("name", "raster1");
$layer1->set("group", "astandaard");
$layer1->setMetaData("LYRNAME","lyrraster1");
$layer1->set("type", MS_LAYER_RASTER);
$layer1->set("status", MS_ON);
$layer1->set("minscale", 30000);
$layer1->set("maxscale", 150000);
$layer1->set("tileindex",
'/var/www/html/datalocal/tileindex/raster1.shp');
$layer1->set("tileitem", location);

The result of this in an array looks like this:
Array ( [0] => nederland [1] => pointdata [2] => MapLayer [3] => raster1
[4] => raster2 [5] => raster3 [6] => raster4 )  

The rasters must load before the pointdata. So what you are telling me
is that I never can change to load order of the map may it be virtual or
dynamical the load order cannot be changed.

The order of you layers in your map file IS significant.  Your raster
layers must come first, then you points.  If you are using mapscript the
same principal applies, raster or polygon layers should be drawn first
then your points.
