Re: [mapserver-users] CGI (FastCGI) mode versus Mapscript?
I can say about subj running on wintel systems (IIS). I've successfully setup mapserv cgi on win2003 iis 6 in fastcgi mode using extension from iis.net. Visually it has nearly 2-3x performance effect. Response speed increases because of mapserv processes keep their instances (more than one in iis web garden powered app pool) for future use. Winthout fastcgi I've observe cpu overloading. Performance effect may be bigger with burden. I have a great experience of developing wep apps using c# mapserver wrapper - this is great opportunity to use c# power, linq to objects, lambda expressions, asp.net script services/methods, json serializers, to extend mapserver classes with new methods (using C# extension methods) - and this is REALLY helpful! But in spite of wrapper uses swig technology (native c++ code calls) - image generation is slightly slower vs mapserv.exe (but some times more correct with peculiar image extents ... never mind). Also mapscript c# allow you to use gdal c# and NTS.net.

[mapserver-users] Scalebar (and C# mapscript) issue
Hello I am having strange issue with scalebar. I have scalebar displayed on map (embed) and scale units are set to miles. It has size of 200x10 pixels. It shows up fine on the map. Then at run time (using C# map script), I just change the units to feet or meters and the bar size shrinks (to almost 10 pixels length), which appears strange to me. Why would the scalebar length changes by changing units. Is there any other setting I need to set to maintain the same scalebar size? This works fine (or not noticeable) for maps which have extents at city level. I am testing on map which displays Ontario province (Canada). Also, you need to have projection elements defined at both map and layer level. In my case, the projection is same (WGS 1984).

[mapserver-users] MapServer conferences on mapserver.org
Hi folks, While zapping around the internet, I stumbled over this site: http://old-mapserver.gis.umn.edu/mum/index2003.html It's the proceedings of the first MapServer conference at the University of Minnesota, on the beautiful campus of St. Paul, June 6-7 2003. I remember that conference with much pleasure , and I guess more people do, as this was the first time MapServer developers and users met face to face, including MapServer's mother and father (isn't that a weird idea, parents meeting for the first time long after their child was born?). And Frank Warmerdam wasn't even there! Wouldn't it be a nice idea to put all MapServer conferences somewhere on the MapServer.org site? Much of it has only historical value of course, but there have been some very interesting talks and workshops in all those years. And who said history isn't important?

Re: AW: [mapserver-users] Mapserver layer selects
I agree that my problem is more PostGIS related than Mapserver but it did arise from a Mapserver session and this list is usually very helpful. In addition, the constraint that seems to be in question is the extent constraint added by Mapserver. Swip2 and swip3 are views: benparts=# \d swip2 View public.swip2 Column |Type | Modifiers --+-+--- rdate| timestamp without time zone | state| numeric | pid | integer | location | text| geom | text| View definition: SELECT max(reading.rdate) AS rdate, sum(reading.rval) AS state, probe.id AS pid, max(probe.location) AS location, max(probe.geom::text) AS geom FROM probe, sensor, switch, reading WHERE probe.id = sensor.probe_id AND sensor.id = reading.sensor_id AND probe.switch_id = switch.id AND sensor.sensor_type::text = 'C'::text GROUP BY probe.id, reading.rdate ORDER BY max(reading.rdate) DESC; benparts=# \d swip3 View public.swip3 Column |Type | Modifiers +-+--- id | integer | zname | text| pid| integer | geom | geometry| rdate | timestamp without time zone | View definition: SELECT DISTINCT zone.id, zone.name AS zname, probe.id AS pid, probe.geom, reading.rdate FROM reading, sensor, zone, probe, switch WHERE reading.sensor_id = sensor.id AND sensor.zone = zone.id AND zone.probe_id = probe.id AND probe.switch_id = switch.id AND sensor.sensor_type::text = 'C'::text AND reading.rval = 1::numeric ORDER BY zone.id, zone.name, probe.id, probe.geom, reading.rdate; They are used to display irrigation probe and zone status in Mapserver layers. The queries (should) return the same probe, switch and sensors - and without the extent constraint (as in query 3), they do.
