[MS4W-Users] mapscript SetProcessing function missing in MS4W5?

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Julian,

Thanks for testing and reporting back.

You can follow along the MS4W 5.0 Migration Guide notes ( 
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/MigrationGuide5.x ), where there it states 
that your new reference for PHP MapScript is always at 
https://mapserver.org/mapscript/mapscript.html  which states that the 
LAYER's setProcessingKey() function should be used, such as:



   $oLayer->setProcessingKey("CLOSE_CONNECTION", "DEFER");


You can also see a more full example in the MS4W Migration Guide at 
https://ms4w.com/trac/wiki/MigrationGuide5.x#PHP

thanks,

-jeff
