[mapserver-users] .NET SWIG Mapscript - Bug or Doc issue

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Steve,

I have create a ticket for this problem
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/4153

The user has provided an image of stepping through the code and a simple 
example with C# code that reproduces the problems. I have helped him 
find a work around, but I think we need to look at the bug and figure 
out if it is SWIG or C# specific issue and clearly some additional doc 
would be helpful to clarify some potential side effects if they are not 
bugs. At the moment the bug is assigned to C#-mapscript.

I don't have perl mapscript built here and it might be a while before I 
can try it out here. Hopefully the ticket will better explain the problem.

Thanks,
