#3215 closed defect (fixed)

Bump up GEOS requirement to 3.0.0+?

Reported by: dmorissette Owned by: aboudreault
Priority: normal Milestone: 6.0 release
Component: MapServer C Library Version: unspecified
Severity: normal Keywords:
Cc: sdlime

Description

In MapServer 5.6, the minimum required GEOS version is 2.2.2 which is fairly old.

In ticket #2753, we added new MapScript methods based on GEOSSimplify and GEOSTopologyPreserveSimplify which are only available in GEOS 3.0+. At the moment a configure test enables them only with GEOS >= 3.0.

Should we consider bumping the GEOS version requirement to 3.0+ for MapServer 6.0, or just leave those two methods optional as is done in 5.6?

6.0 would be a good time to do this so I'd be +1 on this requirement.
