Hi everybody, I just subscribed to this mailing list, I hope I'm not asking a FAQ question.
My task is to develop an application to enter/edit line features (cycle paths). I installed opengeosuite, studied the docs, and tried one of the application samples that use gxp. One of the features I would like to have in my application is to be able to edit the data using a dropdown or radio groups. E.g. 3 postgis tables: table 1: id name color_id (int) geometry tags (list of ints) table 2: id (int) color (string) table 3: id (int) tag name (string) When entering a new path (line) or editing an existing one I would like to be able to enter some of the field values not by hand but by selecting then using a dropdown (combo box) or a radio group. To enter a value in the color field I would have to select one of the values in table 2 and to enter one or more values in field tags I would have to choose from one of the values in table 3. I'm talking about the form displayed using geoexplorer or using one of the opengeosuite sdk samples. I thought I had found a way by using geoserver complex feature but after a simple text, and after reading some post on thi list) I'm afraid I'm wrong. Using geoexplorer with the app-schema tutorial I found out that the getfeatureinfo tool doesn't work (java.lang.ClassCastException: org.geotools.feature.type.ComplexFeatureTypeImpl cannot be cast to org.opengis.feature.simple.SimpleFeatureType). And the tutorial doesn't let edit features. My questions: 1. is there some geoserver/WFS/opengeo sdk automatism to accomplish what I want? 2. if the answer is no, where should I put my attention? On defining appropriately the postgis tables? On the geoserver configuration? On the opengeosuite sdk/geoext/openlayers part? Thank you maxx ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
