You can try this:

Like I said, I've never used it, have no idea if it'll work.

thank you

Actually, I want to change color of contour map according to
another map that lies beneath of contour map. Otherwise
contours cannot be discerned.

So, it' type is line.

And I thought I might be able to change its color using

"layer.updateFromString("COLOR 245 13 60");"

but it failed.

what might the alternative solutions be ?

of type LINE?  Is the layer type POLYGON and you want to change one line
of one polygon?  Is the line the only thing in the layer?  If there are
lots of lines in the layer, do you know how to find the one you want?
