[mapserver-users] Mapcache with mapfile as layer

Hello,

I've been a Mapserver user for many years now but I'm new to Mapcache and
I'm not sure whether it's possible to replicate a particular TileCache
setup using Mapcache.
What we have today is a number of mapfiles (with Mapserver 5.4) set up as
WMS-C layers served with TileCache. We're migrating to Mapserver 6.2.1 and
as it's incompatible with TileCache we expect to be able to replace it
using Mapcache.
In our current setup if I have a mapfile where a particular layer has
STATUS OFF then TileCache will honor that status and not render the layer.
I'd like to know whether it's possible to have MapCache work that way, that
is, passing the map name as the LAYERS parameter of the WMS service and
make it honor whatever STATUS a particular layer would have in the mapfile.

Thanks in advance,
Pablo
