Hi All, There have been a backward incompatible change in r19724<http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/19724>related to the OGR style string format. According to this change the separator in the feature style id has been changed from '.' to ',' Unfortunately such kind of changes may cause existing applications to work incorrectly and would also need to be fixed. For instance this change affects the mapserver function msOGRGetSymbolId in mapogr.cpp<http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/trunk/mapserver/mapogr.cpp>as well. So as to fix this issue in mapserver, we would probably require to keep the original code simultaneously, depending on the gdal version.
I'd be curious to know whether we have any compelling reason to apply these modifications, or we just wanted to follow the feature style specification<http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_feature_style.html>with these changes? In the latter case I would personally in favour of reverting these changes in gdal and handle this issue by fixing the feature style documentation to follow the original syntax. Any ideas? Best regards, Tamas
