[mapserver-users] Mapscript C# and OWSRequest parameters

[Seth G]

Actually as there are no URL limits with MapScript you should be able to add your filter as a WFS GET parameter and skip using POST requests altogether.

It has a loadParams method, but because I’m not running as a CGI application (back-end app without a webserver), this doesn’t do anything. I also tried setting postrequest property and then calling the loadParams, setting Environment variables, etc. No error, no exception, just -1 value from NumParams.
