[MapServer-users] FW: Unable to build mapserver 8 on WIndows with v8 support

[Jeff McKenna]

I honestly don't think that any love has been given to V8 support in 
many years (see the discussion at 
https://github.com/MapServer/MapServer/issues/5484 )

Might be good to give that issue a ping, and for you to post your exact 
errors there, and maybe even a pull request if possible.

PS. as MS4W distributes all mapscripts, V8 is not yet included, and I'm 
willing to add it....but it seems it will take some effort, a community 
effort...
