I have never had luck adding WMS servers to WorldWind, but hopefully you
will.
A couple of things that I notice:
1. I am guessing that for ServerUrl, you will want to specify the url
to mapserver using a map file that has been set up to be a WMS server,
not just your mapserver binary. Something like:
http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/my/mapfile/path/mymap.map
<http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/my/mapfile/path/mymap.map>
2. I am guessing that Version refers to the version of WMS that you are
serving (e.g. 1.0, 1.1, etc.)
David.

Hi
I now have the demo application running. I am trying to add
MapServer to the list of WMS Servers in World Wind. I tried adding the
following to the wms_server_list.xml file
<Server>
<Name>Map Server</Name>
<ServerUrl>http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/mapserv</ServerUrl>
<Version>5.0</Version>
<Abstract>Map Server</Abstract>
</Server>
However this results in the following error from World Wind when
selecting the Tools|WMS Browser menu command
"Map Server[Connection Error]"
Can anyone help me set this up so that I can see MapServer from
World Wind
many thanks
Derek
