Adding a postgis store table that doesn't contain a geometry column fails
without specifying dummy data
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-1859
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1859
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Configuration
Affects Versions: 1.6.1
Reporter: Amos Hayes
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Priority: Minor
Adding tables that do not contain geometries is important for uses where the
client software will be joining tables that have geometries with those that
don't. This often happens in a normalized relational database layout.
The New FeatureType configuration page recognizes that the table has no
geometry and assigns an SRS of -1 and empty bounding box info by default. It
should instead set default values so that clicking submit doesn't return an
error. At the moment, a user has to specify a valid SRS (like 4326) and enter
"0" in all bounding box fields. Perhaps an SRS of 0 or -1 could be used to
denote no geometry and the BBox info could be filled in with zeros.
