The template layer is the last layer in my mapfile which I use in my
app.
it looks like this:
# template-layer for the shortest path example
LAYER
NAME "template_dataset"
CONNECTION "gml/template.gml"
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
TYPE LINE
GROUP "analysis"
STATUS OFF
METADATA
"DESCRIPTION" "RESULT"
END
DUMP true
TEMPLATE "ttt"
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:4326"
END
CLASS
NAME "template"
STYLE
COLOR 0 0 0
SIZE 5
END
END
END
With "other layer in Mapfile" I mean my "normal" layers in this
mapfile. getlayerbyname() works when I use those layers.
Cheers
Stephan
