[mapserver-users] FILTER and multi STYLE tags

[Kalbermatten Michaël]

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick answer and sorry for my late reply.

I downloaded the latest stable release which can be found on the gisinternals website. On the 17th January 2020, that would have been release-1900-x64-gdal-3-0-2-mapserver-7-4-2, which I think is the latest release. Should I try out a daily release ? or where the changes you are talking about already included in release 7.4.2?

Michael
