[mapserver-users] DXF export issues

[Bruno D]

Hi all,

I'm trying to add an "Export to DXF" option to my online maps (using
MapServer, Mapscript PHP and WFS calls). I'm using OGR output, it works well
with other formats (SHP, MifMid, ...) but I got some issues with DXF :

*I can't find a way to get the labels to be created automatically.* The GDAL
doc says "Point features with LABEL styling are written as MTEXT entities
based on the styling information.". My point features do have a class with
label styling, so I suppose it should work. But it doesn't, I only get
points without labels.

*If I use "gml_include_items" "all" in the layer METADATA, I get the
following error : "DXF layer does not support arbitrary field creation" and
the DXF is corrupted.* The only item I can include seems to be "Layer".

Can anyone tell me what I am missing ?

I'm using MapServer 6.4.1 on a CentOS server.

/The PHP script I use to export the files :/
$req = new OWSRequestObj();

$args = Array("service" => "WFS", "request" => "GetFeature", "version" =>
"1.1.0", "typename" => "Objets");

foreach($args as $param => $value)
	$req->setParameter($param, $value);

$req->setParameter("outputformat",$type_sortie);

ms_ioinstallstdouttobuffer();
$map->owsDispatch($req);
ms_iostripstdoutbuffercontentheaders();
result = ms_iogetstdoutbufferstring();

/My mapfile :/
