All,
The Mapscript SWIG interface on the layerObj defines a queryByFilter method as
public int queryByFilter(mapObj map, string arg1)
where arg1 is supposedly the filter to apply when querying the layer, analogous
to
public int queryByRect(mapObj map, rectObj rect)
Where is this method documented? It is not described in either the 6.4 or 7.0
documentation. Based upon the history of the code that I'm attempting to bring
back to life the method was probably documented in MapServer 4.x or 5.x. Note
that is still visible through SWIG.
How should it be used? I tried it with a WFS OGC filter and the log file showed
(ignore line wrapping here):
[Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax
error
[Mon Mar 09 12:18:35 2015].727000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.

I tried with a much simpler mapfile filter and got much the same result:
[Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 yyparse(): Expression parser error. syntax
error
[Mon Mar 09 12:53:22 2015].470000 msEvalExpression: Expression parser error.
Failed to parse expression: ([mukey] in (713970, 713898))
Do any of you have a working example of its use?
Is there a way to use the OGC filter directly within mapscript code? That is
ultimately what I'm after.
Thanks.
