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

[Hulbert, Brian]

Tamas,
	Thanks for the suggestion but the layerObj does not contain and
UpdateFromString property or method (when viewed from Visual Studio's object
browser nor when viewing the API reference online).  Thoughts?

Brian

You can probably use layerObj.UpdateFromString with the string you
have in your mapfile. However I'm not sure how you loose your settings
after the first refresh? Do you recreate your map by using Clone() or
something?
We should also fix msCopyLayer to copy the layerinfo with the graticule
layers.


Best regards,

Tamas
