void ms_ioresethandlers(): Resets the default stdin and stdout handlers in place of “buffer” based handlers.
string ms_iostripstdoutbuffercontenttype(): Strip the Content-type header off the stdout buffer if it has one, and if a content type is found it is return. Otherwise return false.
void ms_iostripstdoutbuffercontentheaders(): Strip all the Content-* headers off the stdout buffer if it has some.
array ms_TokenizeMap(string map_file_name): Preparses a mapfile through the MapServer parser and return an array with one item for each token from the mapfile. Strings, logical expressions, regex expressions and comments are returned as individual tokens.

$img = $map->draw();
$error = ms_GetErrorObj();
while($error && $error->code != MS_NOERR)
{
  printf("Error in %s: %s<br>\n", $error->routine, $error->message);
  $error = $error->next();
}

gridObj ¶

Constructor¶

The grid is always embedded inside a layer object defined as a grid (layer->connectiontype = MS_GRATICULE) (for more docs : https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/MapServerGrid)

A layer can become a grid layer by adding a grid object to it using : ms_newGridObj(layerObj layer)

$oLayer = ms_newlayerobj($oMap);
$oLayer->set("name", "GRID");
ms_newgridobj($oLayer);
$oLayer->grid->set("labelformat", "DDMMSS");

Type	Name	Note
int	width	read-only
int	height	read-only
int	resolution	read-only
int	resolutionfactor	read-only
string	imagepath
string	imageurl

Methods¶

void pasteImage(imageObj srcImg, int transparentColorHex [[, int dstX, int dstY], int angle]): Copy srcImg on top of the current imageObj. transparentColorHex is the color (in 0xrrggbb format) from srcImg that should be considered transparent (i.e. those pixels won’t be copied). Pass -1 if you don’t want any transparent color. If optional dstx,dsty are provided then it defines the position where the image should be copied (dstx,dsty = top-left corner position). The optional angle is a value between 0 and 360 degrees to rotate the source image counterclockwise. Note that if an angle is specified (even if its value is zero) then the dstx and dsty coordinates specify the CENTER of the destination area. Note: this function works only with 8 bits GD images (PNG or GIF).
int saveImage([string filename, MapObj oMap]): Writes image object to specified filename. Passing no filename or an empty filename sends output to stdout. In this case, the PHP header() function should be used to set the document’s content-type prior to calling saveImage(). The output format is the one that is currently selected in the map file. The second argument oMap is not manadatory. It is usful when saving to formats like GTIFF that needs georeference informations contained in the map file. On success, it returns either MS_SUCCESS if writing to an external file, or the number of bytes written if output is sent to stdout.
string saveWebImage(): Writes image to temp directory. Returns image URL. The output format is the one that is currently selected in the map file.

void clearProcessing()

Clears all the processing strings.

void close()

Close layer previously opened with open().

string convertToString()

Saves the object to a string. Provides the inverse option for updateFromString.

classObj getClass(int classIndex)

Returns a classObj from the layer given an index value (0=first class)

int getClassIndex(shape [, classgroup, numclasses])

Get the class index of a shape for a given scale. Returns -1 if no class matches. classgroup is an array of class ids to check (Optionnal). numclasses is the number of classes that the classgroup array contains. By default, all the layer classes will be checked.

rectObj getExtent()

Returns the layer’s data extents or NULL on error. If the layer’s EXTENT member is set then this value is used, otherwise this call opens/closes the layer to read the extents. This is quick on shapefiles, but can be an expensive operation on some file formats or data sources. This function is safe to use on both opened or closed layers: it is not necessary to call open()/close() before/after calling it.

rectObj getResultsBounds()

Returns the bounding box of the latest result.

shapeObj getShape(resultObj result])

If the resultObj passed has a valid resultindex, retrieve shapeObj from a layer’s resultset. (You get it from the resultObj returned by getResult() for instance). Otherwise, it will do a single query on the layer to fetch the shapeindex

$map = new mapObj("gmap75.map");
$l = $map->getLayerByName("popplace");
$l->queryByRect($map->extent);
for ($i=0; $i<$l->getNumResults();$i++){
  $s = $l->getShape($l->getResult($i));
  echo $s->getValue($l,"Name");
  echo "\n";
}

string getWMSFeatureInfoURL(int clickX, int clickY, int featureCount, string infoFormat)

Returns a WMS GetFeatureInfo URL (works only for WMS layers) clickX, clickY is the location of to query in pixel coordinates with (0,0) at the top left of the image. featureCount is the number of results to return. infoFormat is the format the format in which the result should be requested.

int open()

Open the layer for use with getShape(). Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE.

shapeobj nextShape()

Called after msWhichShapes has been called to actually retrieve shapes within a given area. Returns a shape object or NULL on error.

$map = ms_newmapobj("d:/msapps/gmap-ms40/htdocs/gmap75.map");
$layer = $map->getLayerByName('road');
$status = $layer->open();
$status = $layer->whichShapes($map->extent);
while ($shape = $layer->nextShape())
{
  echo $shape->index ."<br>\n";
}
$layer->close();

int queryByAttributes(string qitem, string qstring, int mode)

Query layer for shapes that intersect current map extents. qitem is the item (attribute) on which the query is performed, and qstring is the expression to match. The query is performed on all the shapes that are part of a CLASS that contains a TEMPLATE value or that match any class in a layer that contains a LAYER TEMPLATE value. Note that the layer’s FILTER/FILTERITEM are ignored by this function. Mode is MS_SINGLE or MS_MULTIPLE depending on number of results you want. Returns MS_SUCCESS if shapes were found or MS_FAILURE if nothing was found or if some other error happened (note that the error message in case nothing was found can be avoided in PHP using the ‘@’ control operator).

int queryByFeatures(int slayer)

Perform a query set based on a previous set of results from another layer. At present the results MUST be based on a polygon layer. Returns MS_SUCCESS if shapes were found or MS_FAILURE if nothing was found or if some other error happened (note that the error message in case nothing was found can be avoided in PHP using the ‘@’ control operator).

int queryByPoint(pointObj point, int mode, double buffer)

Query layer at point location specified in georeferenced map coordinates (i.e. not pixels). The query is performed on all the shapes that are part of a CLASS that contains a TEMPLATE value or that match any class in a layer that contains a LAYER TEMPLATE value. Mode is MS_SINGLE or MS_MULTIPLE depending on number of results you want. Passing buffer -1 defaults to tolerances set in the map file (in pixels) but you can use a constant buffer (specified in ground units) instead. Returns MS_SUCCESS if shapes were found or MS_FAILURE if nothing was found or if some other error happened (note that the error message in case nothing was found can be avoided in PHP using the ‘@’ control operator).

int queryByRect(rectObj rect)

Query layer using a rectangle specified in georeferenced map coordinates (i.e. not pixels). The query is performed on all the shapes that are part of a CLASS that contains a TEMPLATE value or that match any class in a layer that contains a LAYER TEMPLATE value.

int set(string property_name, new_value)

Set object property to a new value.

int setConnectionType(int connectiontype [,string plugin_library])

Changes the connectiontype of the layer and recreates the vtable according to the new connection type. This method should be used instead of setting the connectiontype parameter directly. In the case when the layer.connectiontype = MS_PLUGIN the plugin_library parameter should also be specified so as to select the library to load by MapServer. For the other connection types this parameter is not used.

int setFilter(string expression)

Set layer filter expression.

int setMetaData(string name, string value)

Set a metadata entry for the layer. Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE.

int setProcessing(string)

Add the string to the processing string list for the layer. The layer->num_processing is incremented by 1. Returns MS_SUCCESS or MS_FAILURE on error.

int within(shapeobj shape2): Returns true if the shape is entirely within the shape2 passed as argument. Else returns false. Only available if php/mapscript is built with GEOS library.

styleObj ¶

Constructor¶

Instances of styleObj are always embedded inside a classObj or labelObj.

new styleObj(classObj class [, styleObj style])
// or
new styleObj(labelObj label [, styleObj style])

or using the old constructor (do not support a labelObj at first argument)

styleObj ms_newStyleObj(classObj class [, styleObj style])

The second argument ‘style’ is optional. If given, the new style created will be a copy of the style passed as argument.

Methods¶

string convertToString()

Saves the object to a string. Provides the inverse option for updateFromString.

void free()

Free the object properties and break the internal references. Note that you have to unset the php variable to free totally the resources.

string getBinding(const stylebinding)

Get the attribute binding for a specfiled style property. Returns NULL if there is no binding for this property.

$oStyle->setbinding(MS_STYLE_BINDING_COLOR, "FIELD_NAME_COLOR");
echo $oStyle->getbinding(MS_STYLE_BINDING_COLOR); // FIELD_NAME_COLOR

string getGeomTransform()

int removeBinding(const stylebinding)

Remove the attribute binding for a specfiled style property. Added in MapServer 5.0.

$oStyle->removebinding(MS_STYLE_BINDING_COLOR);

int set(string property_name, new_value)

Set object property to a new value.

int setBinding(const stylebinding, string value)

Set the attribute binding for a specfiled style property. Added in MapServer 5.0.

$oStyle->setbinding(MS_STYLE_BINDING_COLOR, "FIELD_NAME_COLOR");

This would bind the color parameter with the data (ie will extract the value of the color from the field called “FIELD_NAME_COLOR”

int setGeomTransform(string value)

int updateFromString(string snippet): Update a style from a string snippet. Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE.

symbolObj ¶

Constructor¶

new symbolObj(mapObj map, string symbolname)

or using the old constructor

int ms_newSymbolObj(mapObj map, string symbolname)

Creates a new symbol with default values in the symbolist.

注解

Using the new constructor, the symbol is automatically returned. The old constructor returns the id of the new symbol.

If a symbol with the same name exists, it (or its id) will be returned. To get a symbol object using the old constructor, you need to use a method on the map object:

$nId = ms_newSymbolObj($map, "symbol-test");
$oSymbol = $map->getSymbolObjectById($nId);

array getPatternArray()

Returns an array containing the pattern. If there is no pattern, it returns an empty array.

array getPointsArray()

Returns an array containing the points of the symbol. Refer to setpoints to see how the array should be interpreted. If there are no points, it returns an empty array.

int set(string property_name, new_value)

Set object property to a new value.

int setImagePath(char filename)

Loads a pixmap symbol specified by the filename. The file should be of either Gif or Png format.

int setPattern(array int)

Set the pattern of the symbol (used for dash patterns). Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE.

int setPoints(array double)

Set the points of the symbol. Note that the values passed is an array containing the x and y values of the points. Returns MS_SUCCESS/MS_FAILURE. Example:

$array[0] = 1 # x value of the first point
$array[1] = 0 # y values of the first point
$array[2] = 1 # x value of the 2nd point
....

Example of usage¶

create a symbol to be used as a dash line

$nId = ms_newsymbolobj($gpoMap, "mydash");
$oSymbol = $gpoMap->getsymbolobjectbyid($nId);
$oSymbol->set("filled", MS_TRUE);
$oSymbol->set("sizex", 1);
$oSymbol->set("sizey", 1);
$oSymbol->set("inmapfile", MS_TRUE);

$aPoints[0] = 1;
$aPoints[1] = 1;
$oSymbol->setpoints($aPoints);

$aPattern[0] = 10;
$aPattern[1] = 5;
$aPattern[2] = 5;
$aPattern[3] = 10;
$oSymbol->setpattern($aPattern);

$style->set("symbolname", "mydash");

Create a TrueType symbol

$nId = ms_newSymbolObj($gpoMap, "ttfSymbol");
    $oSymbol = $gpoMap->getSymbolObjectById($nId);
    $oSymbol->set("type", MS_SYMBOL_TRUETYPE);
    $oSymbol->set("filled", true);
    $oSymbol->set("character", "&#68;");
