Re: [udig-users] Using uDig to debug my WFS
|
Hi Peter:
One thing to test is the describe feature type request; uDig uses this
information to decide how to parse the features at runtime (so it can
draw them). This is an area that is traditionally difficult for people
to configure with mapserver.
One thing to do is check the log; see if their are any failures.
Another thing to do is turn on logging for WFS requests .. there is an
example in online help of how to do this for WMS. We should be able to
make an example for WFS as well.
Turnin on these options will fill up the log with more detail on what
the WFS client code is doing.
Finally you may wish to try the recent uDig 1.2.x releases where there
is additional WFS support (for both 1.1.0 and several fixes for 1.0
services).
