[mapserver-users] mapcache_seed and DIM variables - order of folders created

Thu May 24 05:31:36 PDT 2012

Hi,
at the moment I've found where I can control the folders order inside 
the mapcache.xml. The variables order inside the dimension tag define 
the order of the folders creation

  * my definition inside the mapcache.xml now is:

<dimensions>
<dimension type="values" name="minut" 
default="15">00,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,

11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,

21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,

31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,

41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48,49,50,

51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59</dimension>
<dimension type="values" name="hora" 
default="00">00,01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24</dimension>
<dimension type="values" name="dia" 
default="01">01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31</dimension>
<dimension type="values" name="mes" 
default="01">01,02,03,04,05,06,07,08,09,10,11,12</dimension>
<dimension type="values" name="any" default="2012">2012,2103</dimension>
</dimensions>

  * and I obtain

--Meteosat_params
  |-------WGS84
            |-------2012 (any, year)
                      |-------03 (mes, month)
                                |-------14 (dia, day)
                                        |-------18 (hora, hour)
                                                |-------00 (minut, minute)

I've done some tests and it seems the folders are created in the inverse order as I define the variables inside<dimensions>, being carefull with this I can choose the order inside the cache folder

_Apart from this I have a question:_

after all the params folders I obtain a estructure like

  |-------000
            |-------000
                      |-------XX (x column tile)
                                |-------000
                                        |-------000
                                                |-------YY (column tile)
                                                        *.png

which is the meaning of those*000*  folders?

Thanks,
Helen
