How can COM.Geo [sic] be "a leading conference" when the first one is still six months in the future? [1] And the front page copy on the web site has such flowery text that I don't know whether to feel flush with gratefulness or grimace with bitterness at lost opportunity. Let's see -- "computing driven location based applications" have not revolutionized anything with the prominent exception of online mapping for finding directions, cloud computing is still hot air, and the hottest term of the 90s was not .com but sex, and still is so. As always, time will tell. -- Puneet Kishor ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

[mapserver-users] Which mapscript function to use?
Hi all,
I'm trying to pass a python mapscript image object directly into GDAL, and
can't seem to hit on the correct mapscript object to feed it with.
- Passing a valid WMS url directly into GDAL works fine, like this.
url = "
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/mapfiles/sav0656/basemap.map&layers=Ditches&styles=&service=WMS&width=1056&format=image%2Fpng&request=GetMap&height=1056&srs=EPSG%3A900913&version=1.1.1&bbox=19411336.2028%2C19411336.2028%2C60738697.1524%2C60738697.1524
"
gdal.Open(url)
- However, none of these mapscript objects can seem to be read in a similar
way:
mapobject = mapscript.mapObj('basemap.map')
imageobject = mapobject.draw()
f = StringIO()
imageobject.write(f)
gdal.Open(f)
TypeError: in method 'Open', argument 1 of type 'char const *'
- or:
mapobject = mapscript.mapObj('basemap.map')
imageobject = mapobject.draw()
buffer = imageobject.getBytes()
gdal.Open(buffer)
(Creates a 'NoneType' object without any attributes or methods)
So I'm guessing that the image object that's written as the result of the
WMS request is somehow different from the objects written by
imageObj.write() and imageObj.getBytes(). Any ideas on how to mimic this?
Thanks,
Roger
