Fw: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Too Many Symbols

[Gagan Bansal]

We are using the mapserver 5.0.0, there is no multiple installation.  Here 
is the snip from our mapsymbol.h file. We tried to increase the value 
MS_SYMBOL_ALLOCSIZE to 128, but no effect. The mapserver is not processing 
if the symbol is more than 64.

<snip>
enum MS_SYMBOL_TYPE {MS_SYMBOL_SIMPLE=1000, MS_SYMBOL_VECTOR, 
MS_SYMBOL_ELLIPSE, MS_SYMBOL_PIXMAP, MS_SYMBOL_TRUETYPE, 
MS_SYMBOL_CARTOLINE, MS_SYMBOL_HATCH};

#define MS_SYMBOL_ALLOCSIZE 64      /* number of symbolObj ptrs to 
allocate for a symbolset at once */
#define MS_MAXVECTORPOINTS 100      /* shade, marker and line symbol 
parameters */
#define MS_MAXPATTERNLENGTH 10

#define MS_IMAGECACHESIZE 6

</snip>

Are you sure you are really using MapServer 5.0?

In MapServer 5.0, there is no longer a limit to the number of symbols,
so you should not get an error.

Plus, the mapsymbol.h from MapServer 5.0 no longer has the MS_MAXSYMBOLS
line that you quote above (obviously since the limit is gone).

Maybe you have multiple installations on your machine and you are not
using the version that you think you are using?
