Java mapscript
==============
Before you begin, the JAVA_HOME environment variable must be properly set
and the Java programs "java" and "javac" must be on your path.
To generate the SWIG wrappers you need swig > 1.3.24.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| IMPORTANT API CHANGE: swig 1.3.24 introduced a new way of wrapping |
| enumerations in Java which breaks compatibility with the mapscript |
| generated by previous versions of swig. |
| This will change again in the next major version of mapserver (version 5). |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
MAPSCRIPT Reference
-------------------
The complete reference documentation is available on-line:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapscript
or in the file:
../doc/mapscript.txt
SWIG wrappers
-------------
MapServer releases, beginning with 4.2.4, contain pre-generated wrapper code
(mapscript/java/mapscript_wrap.c) and class files (mapscript/java/edu).
Nevertheless it is recommended that you generate your own using the "interface"
target in the Java Makefile.
Requires swig > 1.3.24. Version 1.3.28 or 1.3.29 are recommended.
Installation
------------
After MapServer is configured and compiled, change directory to the Java
mapscript location and execute:
$ cd mapscript/java
$ make interface
$ make
$ make test (optional)
$ make threadtests (optional)
The 'make interface' step is optional, but strongly recommended, see 'SWIG Wrappers'
above for the details.
Copy libmapscript.so and mapscript.jar to the appropriate location.
Windows
-------
Edit makefile.vc to match your environment. You will need to set JAVA_HOME
and SWIG_HOME to the appropriate variables. You will likely need to copy
all of the DLLs needed to run MapServer into the mapscript/java directory
(including libmap.dll) so the mapscript.dll can see them to run.
cd mapscript/java
nmake /f makefile.vc
nmake /f makefile.vc test
International language support
------------------------------
Since May 2006 Java mapscript has complete support for international languages
usage in queries and mapscript internals. To document this improvement
we have created the examples/QueryByAttributeUnicode.java
test program which uses the ISO-8859-15 encoding.
