Again c# Unable to load DLL (mapscript)

[Paolo Corti]

Hi Tamas, thanks for your help
nagyon koszonom!!! ;-)

> Could you post the mapfile you have used?

Maybe I am wrong, but I would swear that this is correct:

MAP
  IMAGETYPE      PNG
  EXTENT         233335 4090486 1318423 5122209
  SIZE           400 300
  SHAPEPATH      "C:\cvs\data"
  IMAGECOLOR     255 255 255
  LAYER
    NAME         province
    DATA         province
    STATUS       OFF
    TYPE         POLYGON
    CLASS
      NAME       "Sample"
      STYLE
        COLOR        232 232 232
        OUTLINECOLOR 32 32 32
      END
    END
  END 
END

want to open an existing file.

you are right, I misunderstood the API and i placed 5 (it's a polygon
shape). I wouldn't have thought that with mapserver you could create new
shapes! (ArcIMS does not)... and i destroied my existing shape with 103
features :-)

Have you set WEB.IMAGEPATH and WEB.IMAGEURL in you map file?

no I didn't - now I will carefully read the API before asking things on the
forum. I didn't know that the API is just the same for php, c#, java... I
thought every API is different, now I also understand why you where using
SWIG

What do you mean? For a description of the SWIG mapscript API visit:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapscript
For the C# specific issues see:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/mapscriptcscompile

OK, now it's clear to me

My plan is to have the C# API fully supported for the ASP.NET
application models.
To achieve this we should reconsider how mapserver supports the
execution of the multiple threads. For more details see:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/faq/thread_safety
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/development/rfc/ms-rfc-15

These issues also apply to the other languages having multiple threads
executed simultaneously.

Thanks again,
last year when I checked mapserver I didn't get to know that a c# API is
going to be implemented and I were thinking to implement a .NET API to make
calls to the CGI interface. I guess your c# API is not using this approach,
isnt it?
