C# mapscript...

[Tamas Szekeres]

John,

The parser and lexer files are not precompiled with the CVS version. You
have at least 2 options to do:

1. Use the nightly build instead containing theese files precompiled

http://cvs.gis.umn.edu/dist/nightly.tar.gz

2. Download flex and bison

gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/flex.htm
gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bison.htm

and generate theese files from mapparser.y and maplexer.l

Best Regards,


Tamas
