[mapserver-users] shp2img bug? included map files

[Steven Lehr]

This software is outstanding, and I appreciate all you guys who support
this project.  I came across this and did not see anything on the bug
page for shp2img and included map files so I'm just forwarding this
along.  Sorry if this is a known issue or I'm using it incorrectly.
 
shp2img does not look like it follows included map files.
 
I have aerial photography in a separate map file.  
 
I tried using a local path, and a full path, though they did not render
the aerials
INCLUDE "/maps/aerials.map"
INCLUDE "aerials.map"
INCLUDE "./aerials.map"
 
Though when I moved the aerial layer into my map file, it rendered
successfully.
 
MapServer version 5.0.1

Subject: [mapserver-users] shp2img ? pass in parameters?


Can I pass in a parameter to shp2img, i.e. I want to pass in parcel
number, as in my map file it highlights the parcel number. 
 
i.e
shp2img -m /tmp/parcel.map -o 1234.jpg -l parcels parcel=1234
 
Or do I need to write a mapscript script to create images like this.
 
Glancing at the
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/utilityreference/shp2img I
think I already have my answer, but I thought I might ask first.  Anyone
got a quick script I can borrow..
