[mapserver-users] Maximum number of classes per layer

[Doyon, Jean-Francois]

I used to do this all the time under Linux, though I imagine the process
isn't quite as straightforward under Windows.

Or you could upgrade to the latest MS4W with mapserver 5, where those
limits are gone.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Maximum number of classes per layer


Hi list,

I'm trying to serve out the 1:50,000 geology of the United Kingdom and
have a number of layers with more than 250 classes; which seems to be
the limit for the MapServer for Windows - MS4W package we are using.

Before going down the route of compiling our own version of MapServer,
can anyone offer any advice as to whether this is a wise plan of action?

...that is recompiling to show more classes per layer rather than
recompiling... 

thanks
