Hi Jan,

I think I read your question too fast. I don't think my link helped you, however I realized that the MS4W examples didn't include setting WEB object metadata (I must have just gave examples in another email thread). I tested that locally, and I've now added that example to the docs:

  //******
  // set WEB object metadata
  //******
  $oMap->web->metadata->set("ows_title", "MS4W demo");

Regarding your question, I am not fully understanding what you want, as you seem to agree/know the new way to set the WEB object metadata.

Long story short, you helped me, I didn't help you, ha.

Hi all,

I finally got mapserver 8.0.1 running in a clean Docker Ubuntu image, using the regular apt packages mapserver-bin and php-mapscript-ng. Thanks to Rich Greenwood for referring me to the php-mapscript-ng package, it's difficult to find. BTW, who manages this package, so I can inquire for the version for mapserver 8.4?

I am now updating all my mapserver 7 sites, the ones without SWIG PHP- Mapscript. Some PHP functions can be easily redefined in a header file, like:

function ms_newMapObj($mapFile) {return new mapObj ($mapFile);}

But I have not yet found out how to do this for object functions like

  mapObj->setMetadata($param1,$param2)

This has to be changed to

mapObj->web->metadata->set($param1,$param2).

I tried things like:

 mapObj->setMetadata($param1,$param2) = function ($param1,$param2) { $this->web->metadata->set($param1,$param2)};

But this does not work. Does anyone know how to do it? Is it possible at all in PHP? If not, I have to convert all expressions like this in all my scripts by hand.

Jan
