Re: [udig-devel] WFS request

[Jody Garnett <jody.garnett@xxxxxxxxx>]

Alberto we use the geotools library. While it does have some XML parsers to let you understand the results of a simple get feature request … that is not really how WFS works. A client is expected to read the WFS GetCapabilities document in order to make a valid getFeature request (using the protocol supported by the server).

You can have a look at the geotools library; and review the test cases for more details.

Hello everybody.

I would like to create a button that simply performs a getfeature request like this:

http://www.example.com/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&

Does exist a function that creates a layer with the WFS features, taking in input a URL with the parameter "request=getFeature"  like this?

String getFeatureRequest = "http://www.example.com/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&";
WFSService.createLayer(String getFeatureRequest)

Thanks.
Alberto
