pointObj point.draw(..)

[Jose Luis Gonzalez]

Hello to everybody
I have finally solved how to draw a point on my map.
But I have an other doubt: in the definition of the draw method of the pointObj you have a text parameter. I thought that that would be writen next to the point, but it doesn't. Is that normal?Is it just a reference to name the point in some way?
this is my program:

                mapObj map = new mapObj("mymap.map");
                imageObj img=map.draw();
                layerObj point_layer=new layerObj(map);
                point_layer=map.getLayerByName("Point");
                pointObj pt=new pointObj(3460000,5540000,0,0);
                pt.draw(map,point_layer,img,0,"point1");

And part of my .map file:

   LAYER
     NAME "Point"
       TYPE POINT
       STATUS DEFAULT
       CLASS
          STYLE
            COLOR 255 0 0
          END
   END
   END

If I want to draw a text next to the point, what do I have to use, a labelObj?

Thank you

Jose Luis
