Hi, i tried to find an answer in the ol.users list before [1], but didn't get any. maybe some one here can give me some hint.
[1] http://n2.nabble.com/Adding-Feature-to-WFS-in-Vector-Layer---Copying-Features-td3390769.html#a3390769 Old Message: I try to build a copy function so that a user can select some features from a WFS and copy them to another. My WFS are not normal WFS Layers they are build in Vector Layers wfsLayer [layerArray[j].name] = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector ( ... { strategies: [ new OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed({preload:false}), new OpenLayers.Strategy.Save({ ... ], projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:31467"), protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({...}) }, ... ); I made a function to select features from a WFS, these features are temporarily stored in a normal Vector layer ("select"). This function is build after: http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/getfeature-wfs.html Another function is called after the end of selecting features, the user has to end selecting manually. This should be the copy function. The function should take all features from the "select" layer and copy them over to the wfsLayer from above. That is all I have so far: function copySelectedFeatures (wfsLayer){ features = select.features; for (i=0;i<features.length;i++){ var feature = features[i]; layer.addFeatures([feature]); layer.strategies[1].save(feature); } } Is this the correct approach, I have included the line: layer.strategies[1].save(feature); because I thought it would commit newly added features, but it wont work. No feature is ever added. Any help is welcome :) Thanks in forward. Greetings, Fabian My transaction is getting more and more complete. But the Coordinates are still missing. If anybody has an idea it would be great ;) <wfs:Transaction xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs" service="WFS" version="1.0.0" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.0.0/WFS-transaction.xsd http://www.FOO.BLA http://FOO:8080/geoserver/wfs?Service=WFS&Request=DescribeFeatureType& version=1.0.0&typename=foo:bla" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <wfs:Insert> <feature:bla xmlns:feature="http://FOO.BLA"> <feature:the_geom> <gml:MultiPolygon xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" srsName="EPSG:31467"/> </feature:the_geom> </feature:bla> </wfs:Insert> </wfs:Transaction> Before I try to commit a newly added feature I print out FID an geometry of the last features of the layer I added to. As you can see below, I get the last feature that has been in the layer before the add (FID: bla.203) and the newly added (FID: null). So I do not get the reason why no geometry is in the transaction.
