I have a raster layer in map file. When I load the map file using C# map
script, at run time it shows layerObj.connectiontype as
‘MS_CONNECTION_TYPE.MS_SHAPEFILE’ though it is raster image. Is there
any syntax error with my map file definition. I need to know exactly
whether it is a raster or vector layer in my application. Some logic in
my application needs to handle them differently.
This is the entry in map file
LAYER
DATA "14m_jpg_24bit.jpg"
NAME " 14m Jpg 24bit"
STATUS ON
TYPE RASTER
UNITS METERS
END
Murty,
I believe the connectiontype value is left to the default for raster
layers, which happens to be MS_SHAPEFILE. The connectiontype does not
really apply for layers of type RASTER.
I think to distingish layer types properly you will need to examine both
the TYPE and CONNECTIONTYPE fields.
Best regards,
