[ZOO-PSC] [mapserver-users] Tinyows as a WFS-T server - error commiting write

[Jeff McKenna]

Hello Gérald,

Congratulations on your appveyor work.

It is interesting timing of course, as I am working very hard on the 
MS4W build process, preparing the environment for the ZOO-Project.  I've 
been fulltime on MS4W since September, when ms4w.com was launched.

Of course, in the perfect world your response would have been "great 
timing, we really need ZOO-Project distributed on Windows, with 
MapServer 7 support, and instead of spending so much time learning the 
process ourselves, we have chosen to fund Gateway Geomatics to add this 
into MS4W, for the entire MapServer and ZOO-Project community".  :)

Good luck with your appveyors builds.

As you know, or might not know, MS4W environment is much different than 
the environment you chose.  All libraries are kept uptodate, and a 
strict release cycle is followed (this makes sure all 160+ libraries are 
kept uptodate, which, maybe you should check into about the libraries 
you chose to use, you will find most are very old).  It is a lot of 
work, as you are finding out (likely why you chose to use libraries 
compiled elsewhere).  None of the 160+ libraries are compiled 
externally, it is all done in-house.

Anyway, I just thought I'd update the ZOO-Project PSC with this effort. 
  I hope to have something to the MapServer community soon.  As you 
noticed in my recent public messages, the GeoMOOSE developer community 
has been using MS4W for their WFS-T through TinyOWS (I did all that 
unfunded by the way).  I am doing the same for ZOO-Project.

I expect you'll see public messages from me this month, on issues 
related to these builds.  I can imagine I'll be hitting many issues, 
with newer library versions, compilers, and all that fun, soon :))))

Thanks for listening,

-jeff

Note that on my current MapMint version I am successfully using MapServer 7.0.1 so it should not hurt to build against this newer version. Note that we may also integrate the MapServer 7.0.1 support directly inside the build process to provide binary distribution of both ZOO-Project and MapServer.
