Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] begin with C# MapScript

[Tamas Szekeres]

Hi,

Take a look at the sample applications eg. the drawmap sample in the
mapscript/csharp/examples directory.
For drawing the map without saving into a file see:

using(imageObj image = map.draw())
{
        byte[] img = image.getBytes();
        using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(img))
        {
                Image mapimage = Image.FromStream(ms);
                if (mapPicture.Image != null)
                {
                        mapPicture.Image.Dispose();
                        mapPicture.Image = null;
                }
                mapPicture.Image = mapimage;
        }
}

Hi ALL,

with the help from this mailing list  I am going to improve my application
with the C# MapScript, but before I begin with something, I still have some
doubts, and need you guys in this mailing list to encourage me, :-). Ok,
here is my scenario:

I've been worked on MapServer for about two months, but only based on the
CGI mode and never with any MapScript API. With the help from this mailing
list, I have now MS4W1.5.3 run on my computer with Oracle Spatial support,
which is tested under the CGI mode.

Now I have another application under the .NET FW, all I need to do is to get
a map image from MapServer.  AFAIK, the map images can be generated with the
command <mapserver.exe "QUERY_STRING=...."> in the command line, therefore I
think if I could directly use the C# MapScript API to generate the map
image, and without IIS or Apche web server. For example, I can call the
draw() in the C# MapScript to generate the map image. But I am really not
sure about this.

and for the first step to C# MapScript, I would really appreciate it if I
can get any example to using C# MapScript API from you guys here.

thanks in advance

kind regards

zhonghai
