Documentation - Re: [mapserver-users] Something odd with queries in 5.6.1

[Carlos Ruiz]

Maybe the PHP Mapscript documentation must specify in the getFeature method description of the 
LayerObj Class section (http://www.mapserver.org/mapscript/php/index.html#layerobj-class) that it's 
deprecated since version 5.6.1, as the getShape method description:

Deprecated in v5.0, use getFeature() instead (note that the order
of the arguments is reversed since 
tileindex is optional in
getFeature())

Due to a change in the handling of queries in version 5.6, ols scripts must be updated to use the new $layer->resultsGetShape() method instead of $layer->GetShape() or $layer->GetFeature() to read query results.

There is a mention of this change in the migration guide, but it may not be clear enough (contributions welcome):
