[ka-Map-users] Changing the mapfile

[Yamaju]

Hi Pje,

I think what's happening is the tile images in the kacache directory are not invalidated when the mapfile switches.
If we invalidate the tile images, however, not only the user who performed the search but also all other users will get the changed tile images.
How about highlighting searched features with kaXMLOverlay?

  Hi,

  I need to change the data of a layer based on a parameter. So, I'm generating the mapfile dinamically and setting it by mySetMap('mapfile_tmp'). The problem is if i change the data and set the mapfile with the same name, the layer didn't change. 

  Example:

  MapfileA

  map
      layer
          connectiontype POSTGIS
          data "the_geom from table"
          ...
      end
  end

  Then i change the mapfile to:

  map
      layer
          connectiontype POSTGIS
          data "the_geom from table where column = 'foo' "
          ...
      end
  end

  And I set the mapfile mySetMap('MapfileA').

  What I'm doing wrong?

  What i need to do is to change the data of a layer when an user make a search.
