Greetings,
I am working on a tutorial for MapServer using a Postgis backend, and
I just want to check if I am setting a correct example. This is my
first .map file so please forgive me for my noob question.
Is there a way to have text labels and lines on the same layer?
Instead of two Postgis queries, I was wondering if it is possible to
do with a single query.
Here is the pertinent portion of my .map files:
LAYER
CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
NAME "roads"
CONNECTION "user=postgres dbname=ca_hwy host=localhost"
DATA "the_geom FROM (SELECT roads.oid AS oid, roads.the_geom AS
the_geom, roads.fename AS fename FROM roads) AS named_roads USING
UNIQUE oid USING SRID=-1"
STATUS ON
TYPE ANNOTATION
LABELITEM fename
CLASS
LABEL
POSITION auto
ANGLE follow
SHADOWCOLOR 120 255 120
SHADOWSIZE 1 1
SIZE 8
COLOR 0 192 0
FONT sans-bold
TYPE truetype
BUFFER 4
MINDISTANCE 200
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
END
END
LAYER
CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
NAME "roads"
CONNECTION "user=postgres dbname=ca_hwy host=localhost"
DATA "the_geom FROM roads USING UNIQUE oid USING SRID=-1"
STATUS ON
TYPE LINE
CLASS
SIZE 2
COLOR 0 0 0
END
END
Thanks,
