How to run Java Mapscript in a servlet ON WINDOWS on Tomcat 5.5 (MS4W 1.5.1)?

[Frederico Lucca]

Rot,

I don't know about the application that you have downloaded, but you need 2
things to start.
1) A DLL file named libmapscript.so (linux) or libmapscript.dll (windows)
2) A JAR file named mapscript.jar

The jar file has all references to access the dll file. Using the jar as a
library in your jsp or servlet you can use mapserver.

After this, you need to understand the mapfile structure.
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile

I'm sending a example application that read a mapfile and export a image.

Good luck,

Fred
