Aside from new development of an entire MapServer java base... One way I've done some integration is by using a java bean that acts to wrap a CGI instance of the mapserver. See the attached source code for a first attempt. This was written to allow a java developer to embed maps with dynamically generated points (on his side, in java) into to his application. On the MapServer side you just have a basic template that allows for the return of MapServer variables in a java collection (hash). Simple, but effective in some instances. I've included a sample template file as well... Remember, just a first attempt at doing something like this.

I would like to use Java, JSP with mapserver to generate maps. I have windows 2000 server, also with Tomcat. Is there any "How to do" information available? or can I have some sample demo projects?. I don't know how I can proceed. Any help inthis regard is greatly appreciated. Girimapext=[mapext] img=http://[host]:[port][img]
