Upgrade Package for MS4W 1.5.x

Description

This will upgrade your MapServer installation to version 4.10.0-beta2. Note that after installing, your PHP/MapScript applications should be modified to use this php_mapscript_4.10.0.dll.

Note that the Oracle10g plugin will work with this upgrade, but the SDE plugin will not.

  (bug 1885)

- Set ./lib and ./include properly for MING support (bug 1866)

  similar and less intrusive).  (bug 1883)

- Added mapserver compilation flags to the SWIG c# command line
  (bug 1881)

- Use the label element in the ColorMapEntry for the raster symbolizer
  (Bug 1844)


- Adding Geos functions to php mapscript (bug 1327)


- Added a type cast to msio.i so as to eliminate the warning with the
  SWIG unix/osx builds


- Fixed csharp/Makefile.in for supporting the OSX builds and creating
  the platform dependent mapscript_csharp.dll.config file.


- Fixed error in detection of libpdf.sl in configure.in (bug 1868).

4.10.0-beta1 Changes (2006-08-17)

- Marking the following SWIG object members immutable (bug 1803)
  layerObj.metadata, classObj.label, classObj.metadata,
  fontSetObj.fonts, legendObj.label, mapObj.symbolset,
  mapObj.fontset, mapObj.labelcache, mapObj.reference,
  mapObj.scalebar, mapObj.legend, mapObj.querymap
  mapObj.web, mapObj.configoptions, webObj.metadata,
  imageObj.format, classObj.layer, legendObj.map,
  webObj.map, referenceMapObj.map
  labelPathObj was made completely hidden (according to Steve's
  suggestion)

- Fixed problem with PHP MapScript's saveWebImage() filename
  collisions when mapscript was loaded in php.ini with PHP as an
  Apache DSO (bug 1322)

- Produce warning in WFS GetFeature output if ???_featureid is
  specified but corresponding item is not found in layer (bug 1781).
  Also produce a warning in GetCapabilities if ???_featureid not
  set (bug 1782)

- Removed the default preallocation of 4 values causing memory
  leaks. (related to bug 1801) Added initValues to achieve the
  similar functionality if needed.

- Fixed error in msAddImageSymbol() where a symbol's imagepath
  was not set (bug 1832).

- Added INCLUDE capability in mapfile parser (bug 279)

- Revert changes to mapzoom.i that swapped miny and maxy (Bug 1817).

- MapScript (swig) creation of an outputFormatObj will now set
  the inmapfile
  flag so that it gets written out to saved maps by default (Bug 1816).

- Converted GEOS support to use the GEOS C-API (versiopn 2.2.2 and higher).
  Wrapped remaining relevant GEOS functionality and exposed via SWIG-based
  MapScript.

- If a layer has wms_timedefault metadata, make sure it is applied even
  if there is no TIME= item in the url.  (Bug 1810)

- Support for GEOS/ICONV/XML2 use flags in Java Makefile.in (related to
  bug 1801)

- Missing GEOS support caused heap corruption using shapeObj C# on linux
  (Bug 1801)

- Fix time filter propogation for raster layers to their tileindex layers.
  New code in maprasterquery.c (bug 1809)

- Added logic to collect LD_SHARED even if PHP not requested in configure.

- Fix problems with msio/rfc16 stuff on windows.  Don't depend on comparing
  function pointers or "stdio" handles.  (mapio.c, mapio.h, msio.i)

- Support WMC Min/Max scale in write mode (bug 1581)

- Fixed leak of shapefile handles (shp/shx/dbf) on tiled layers (bug 1802)

- Added webObj constructor and destructor to swig interface with
  calls to initWeb and freeWeb (bug 1798).

- mapows.c: ensure msOWSDispatch() is always available even if there are
  no services to dispatch.  This makes mapscript binding easier.

- FLTAddToLayerResultCache wasn't properly closing the layer after it
  was done with it.

- Added ability to encrypt tokens (passwords, etc.) in database connection
  strings (MS-RFC-18, bug 1792)

- Fixed zoomRectangle in mapscript: miny and maxy were swapped, making it
  impossible to zoom by rect; also the error message was referring to the
  wrong rect. There were no open issues on bugzilla. Reverted because
  of 1817.

- Implementation of RFC 16 mapio services (bug 1788).

- Use lp->layerinfo for OGR connections (instead of ogrlayerinfo) (bug 331)

- Support treating POLYGONZ as MS_SHAPE_POLYGON.  (bug 1784)

- Complete support for international languages in Java Mapscript
  (bug 1753)

- Output feature id as @fid instead of @gml:id in WFS 1.0.0 / GML 2.1.2
  GetFeature requests (bug 1759)

- Allow use of wms/ows_include_items and wms/ows_exclude_items to control
  which items to output in text/plain GetFeatureInfo. Making the behavior
  of this INFO_FORMAT consistent with the new behavior of GML GetFeatureInfo
  output introduced in v4.8. (bug 1761)
  IMPORTANT NOTE: With this change if the *_include_items metadata
  is not specified for a given layer then no items are output for that layer
  (previous behavior was to always all items by default in text/plain)

- Make sure mappostgis.c closes MYCURSOR in layer close function so that
  CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER works properly.  (bug 1757)

- Support large (>2GB) raster files relative to SHAPEPATH. (bug 1748)

- Set User-Agent in HTTP headers of client WMS/WFS connections (bug 1749)

- Detection of os-dependent Java headers for Java mapscript (bug 1209)

- Preventing to take ownership of the memory when constructing objects
  with parent objects using C# mapscript (causing nullreference exception,
  Bug 1743)

- [SWF] Adding format option to turn off loading  movies automatically (
  Bug 1696)

- Fixed FP exception in mapgd.c when pixmap symbol 'sizey' not set
  (bug 1735)

- Added config file for mapping the library file so the DllImport
  is looking for to its unix equivalent (Bug 1596) Thanks to Scott
  Ellington

- Added /csharp/Makefile.in for supporting the creation of Makefile
  during configuration with MONO/Linux (fix for bug 1595 and 1597)

- Added C# typemaps for char** and outputFormatObj**

- Support for dispatching multiple error messages to the MapScript
  interface (bug 1704).

- Fix inter-tile "cracking" problem (Bug 1715).

- [OGC FILTER] Correct bug when generating an sql expression containing
  an escape character.

- Allow a user to set a PROCESSING directive for an SDE layer to specify
  using the attributes or spatial index first.  (bug 1708).

- Cheap and easy way of fudging the boundary extents for msSDEWhichShapes
  in the case where the rectangle is really a point (bug 1699).

- Implement QUANTIZE options for GD/PNG driver (Bug 1690, Bug 1701).

- [WMS] Publish the GetStyles operation in the capabilities document.

- [PHP_MAPSCRIPT] Add antialias parameter in the style object (Bug 1685)

- [WFS] : Add the possiblity to set wfs_maxfeatures to 0 (Bug 1678)

- [SLD] : set the default color on the style when using default settings
  in PointSymbolizer. (bug 1681)

- Incorporate range coloring support for rasters (bug 1673)

- Fixed mapthread.c looking for the unix compiler symbol rather than just
  testing whether or not _WIN32 is defined for the usage of posix threads
  because unix is not defined on compilers like GCC 4.0.1 for OS X.

- Fixed the fuzzy brush support so that the transition between 1 pixel
  aa lines and brushes is less obvious. The old code would not allow
  for a 3x3 fuzzy brush to be built. (bug 1659)

- Added missing mapscript function msConnPoolCloseUnreferenced() (bug 1661)
  We need to make conn. pooling handling transparent to mapscript users
  so that they do not have to call this function once in a while,
  for instance by creating an evictor thread.

- Added calls to msSetup/msCleanup() at MapScript load/unload time
  (bug 1665)

- Reorganized nmake.opt to be more focused on functionality groups rather
  than the propensity of a section to be edited.  Default values are now
  all set to be pointed at the MapServer Build Kit, which can be obtained
  at http://hobu.stat.iastate.edu/mapserver/

- configure.in/Makefile.in: Use PROJ_LIBS instead of PROJ_LIB.  PROJ_LIB
  is sometimes defined in the environment, but points to $prefix/share/proj
  not the proj link libraries.

- Update Web Map Context to 1.1.0, add the dimension support. (bug 1581)

- Support SLD body in context document. (bug 887)

- When generating an ogc filter for class regex expressions, use
  the backslah as the default escape character (Bug 1637)

- Add connectiontype initialization logic when the layer's virtual
  table is initialized (Bug 1615)

- Added modulus operator to mapparser.y.

- Added new support for [item...] tag in CGI-based templates (bug 1636)

- Reverted behaviour to pre-1.61:
  do not allow for use of the FILTERITEM attribute (bug 1629)

- Treat classindex as an int instead of a char in resultCacheMemberObj to
  prevent problems with more than 128 classes (bug 1633)

- WMS : SLD / stretch images when using FE (Bug 1627)

- Add gml:lineStringMember in GML2 MultiLineString geometry (bug 1569).

- PHP : add shape->sontainsshape that uses geos lib (Bug 1623).

- Move gBYTE_ORDER inside the pg layerinfo structure to allow for
  differently byte ordered connections (bug 1587).

- Fix the memory allocation bug in sdeShapeCopy (Bug 1606)

- Fixed OGR WKT support (Bug 1614).

- Added shapeObj::toWkt() and ms_shapeObjFromWkt() to PHP MapScript
  (bug 1466)

- Finished implementation of OGR Shape2WKT function (Bug 1614).

- Detect/add -DHAVE_VSNPRINTF in configure script and prevent
  systematic buffer overflow in imagemap code when vsnprintf()
  not available (bug 1613)

- Default layer->project to MS_TRUE even if no projection is set,
  to allow geotransforms (nonsquare pixels, etc) to be applied
  (bug 1645).

- Force stdin into binary mode on win32 when reading post bodies.
  (bug 1768)
