Given that SLD support is incomplete in both QGis and MapServer, this PR gets rid of the SLD-based exporter and introduces a new method for exporting vector layer styles into a mapfile. While our exporter is still far from perfect, we believe it already provides a more faithful rendering of complex vector styles than what this plugin currently has to offer (see Figures 1 to 3).
The further development of this plugin was sponsored by ViaMap Ltd. in the frame of transferring a municipal GIS system from Intergraph technology to opensource GIS stack. The project was commissioned by the Municipality of 11th District of Budapest, Hungary.
Support is added for the following features:
- Line Pattern Fills and Point Pattern Fills
