Dynamic symbolizers not evaluated in KML output for relative path
ExternalGraphics
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-4608
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4608
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Google Earth KML Output
Affects Versions: 2.1.0
Reporter: Christopher S. Dillard
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Attachments: bad_eval.sld
An SLD with an ExternalGraphic that has a relative filename containing a ${...}
expression does not get evaluated. This is related in spirit to prior bug
GEOS-2670, but I think it's a different problem.
A minimalist SLD demonstrating the problem is attached. Use it with any point
features. It requires that you have a "foo/bar.png" image in your GeoServer's
styles directory. (My real-world SLD uses a custom-written function evaluated
on various feature properties to determine which image to display for each
feature.) The KML that results from the attached SLD has the following in it:
<IconStyle>
<colorMode>normal</colorMode>
<Icon>
<href>http://localhost:8080/geoserver-2.1.0/styles/foo/$%7B'bar'%7D.png</href>
</Icon>
</IconStyle>
This SLD works great outputting images in the WMS, just not KML. (I'm not
familiar enough with the WMS rendering code to figure out what's different.)
I stepped through the debugger, and here's what I observed:
If the SLD's ExternalGraphic has a relative path (e.g.
xlink:href="somedir/somefile.png") then it apparently gets converted to an
absolute "file:" URL. So in KMLMapTransformer.java's encodePointStyle method,
you get into the "if" branch that deals with "file:" URLs. At line 703 of
KMLMapTransformer.java the bad thing happens: ResponseUtils.buildURL is
invoked, which URL-encodes the "{" and "}" characters. So when
evaluateDynamicSymbolizer is called, it can't find any "${...}" strings (since
they now look like "$%7B...%7D"). And in fact, an exception gets dumped to the
console complaining about the bare "$".
You can work around this behavior by changing the SLD to use absolute URLs
instead. This makes the KMLMapTransformer.java "if" block that encodes the URL
get skipped. Then KML works, but the WMS stops rendering the icons. (I
suppose I could have one style and/or layer for each: KML and images. But that
seems unsatisfactory.)
