Jelmer,
I checked in the code, and it seems that you'd get that error if
MapServer tries to read one of the OGR:Label* attributes on a feature
that does not have a label definition, or in the case of TAB files, on a
MapInfo object that is not a TEXT object.
I am realizing just now that this makes it impossible to use OGR:Label*
on a .TAB file that has mixed object types. I think it would be possible
to make MapServer handle this more gracefully, i.e. returning some
default values (text="", angle=0 and size=0) in cases where the object
is not of the right type.
Hmm, so this means I'll have to detect whether or not a .TAB file has a
labels or not? I'm not sure if this would be per item, or per .TAB file
/ layer?
Also, I don't think this detection can be done in MapServer, right?
Maybe in MapBasic... Would you happen to have any ideas about that, too?
Thanks for the help!
