Description
According to the corresponding discussion in the mapserver-dev list the followings will be implemented in the trunk:
- The displayable range of the layer can be specified by using the width of the geo-extent of the map in map units in addition to the current MINSCALEDENOM/MAXSCALEDENOM parameters by adding the MINGEOWIDTH/MAXGEOWIDTH parameters to the layer.
- If both MINSCALEDENOM/MAXSCALEDENOM and MINGEOWIDTH/MAXGEOWIDTH are specified the MINSCALEDENOM/MAXSCALEDENOM setting will take precedence.
- The new keywords will be added to the parser.
- The new keywords will be taken into account during the loadLayer copyLayer and writeLayer operations and in the map legend display.
- MapFile? reference and MapScript? doc. change according to the new items
