[mapserver-users] Unable to access Grid Object (GridObject) via C# MapScript interface (related to bug 1980)

[Hulbert, Brian]

I have a MAP file that contains a layer for displaying graticule (see
below).  However, after the first refresh, the labelformat for my grid
object is lost.  This was noted in bug 1980
<http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/1980> .  I cannot find a workaround
for this bug by traversing the layer->class object hierarchy and trying to
set a labelformat for the GridObject.

 

Can the label format be reset via the mapscript_csharp dll interface?  If
not, is drawing the graticule lines better accomplished via a shape file?
Even if I need to do both a equirectangular and orthographic projections?

 

Ref: I am using MapScript 5.0.2 and calling it from C# using MS VS 2005
