Change Output Format

[Yewondwossen Assefa]

You could use selectOutputFormat on the map object. Here is the 
description for this function :

int selectOutputFormat(string type)
         Selects the output format to be used in the map.
         Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE.

         Note : the type used should correspond to one of the output
                formats declared in the map file.
                The type argument passed is compared with the mimetype
                parameter in the output format structure and then to
                the name parameter in the structure.
