[mapserver-users] WFS-Mapscript

Wed Jul 9 21:10:47 EDT 2008

This works on layers of CONNECTIONTYPE WFS (i.e. MapServer fetches from the remote WFS).

When I try your PHP code against the following layer def:

 LAYER
  NAME envirodat
  GROUP "VECTOR"
  TYPE POINT
  STATUS ON
  CONNECTIONTYPE WFS
  CONNECTION "http://map.ns.ec.gc.ca/envdat/map.aspx?"
  PROJECTION
   "init=epsg:4326"
  END
  METADATA
   "wfs_request_method" "GET"
   "wfs_connectiontimeout" "60"
   "wfs_version" "1.0.0"
   "wfs_service" "WFS"
   "wfs_typename" "envirodat"
   "wfs_latlonboundingbox" "-64.6622 46.7594 -52.6808 55.2333"
  END
  CLASS
   NAME "Water Quality Monitoring Stations"
   COLOR 255 255 0
  END
 END

I get back the path to the resulting GML file as defined in http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/phpmapscript-class/classes/layerobj.

Hope this helps.

Hi everybody.
I'm trying to handle WFS with Mapscript but it's not working for me.
Output of the code below supose to be the name of the GML file, but it's only empty string. 
What's wrong??

CODE::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
<?php
 dl('php_mapscript.dll');  
 $map_path="/ms4w/apps/test/";

$map = ms_newMapObj($map_path."lol.map");
$kokot = $map->getLayerByName("MyWFS");
$GMLname= "= ".$kokot->executeWFSGetfeature()." =";
?>

Thanks for help.
