[Cartoweb-users] Mapfile switch

[Oliver Christen]

Hi Christoph

this is not possible without heavy modification of Cartoweb.
you cant change the mapfile on-the-fly. One project means one mapfile and
one session.

The only way is to "mirror" two project so they look alike, but the session
will be different, so if you want to keep a user logged for example, you
will need to extend the auth plugin and mess with the sessions.

there was a discussion about this matter on the mailing list:
http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/cartoweb-users/2007-April/002365.html
http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/cartoweb-users/2007-March/002204.html

regards
Oliver
