Re: [udig-devel] GeoWebCache and udig WMSC

OK, but I'm a bit confused about the place of the implementation. Could you explain the main reason not to implement it as an extension in geotools? Is it because of the pending status as a standard (TMS/WMSC)? Should the udig one be a reference client implementation? 

The classes I looked at are very similar to the geotools wms extension. And many classes are implemented twice (geotools WMSComplexType / udig WMSCComplexType and their internal classes (like _ServiceType)).

Is it planed to move this stuff to the geotools library, so geoserver and other projects can benefit from it?

Would be nice to know ;)

Thanks, 
Frank

Hrm you are correct GeoWebCache stopped working for me from the opengeo site; I have just continued testing with tilecache.

Hello,

Sorry for cross-posting!

I wondered about the results using local geoserver with activated and configured geowebcache and udig 1.2 RC1 wmsc wizzard.

I try to describe, perhaps somebody could confirm:
- Add Web map Tile Cache Layer (WMSC)
- add url http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms?tiled=true
- The final request was http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms?TILED=true&REQUEST=GetCapabilities&SERVICE=WMS

So all the parameter keys are changed to upper cases because of org.geotools.data.ows.AbstractRequest class (setProperty() uses toUpperCase()). The Geowebcache WMSGetCapabilities class calls the getParameter of HttpServletRequest:
HttpServletRequest.getParameter("tiled");

I debugged a bit and the responding capabilities document has no VendorSpecificCapabilities section.

It looks like a bug in geowebcache because it ignores the uppercase TILED Parameter, doesn't it? Tilecache.org seems not handle tiled or TILED at all and always returns a capabilities document with a VendorSpecificCapabilitiessection.

Is the "tiled" request parameter a specific implementation of geowebcache or is it a required parameter described in the TMS specification (where can I find it)?

In regards,

Frank
