Hi,
say one has a table or a view that contains charaters that are invalid
xml tag wise, such as spaces. For example, "My name".
That makes it impossible to use that layer for WFS purposes for sure,
but I've found that it makes it impossible to use the attribute for
other things as well. For example, I cannot use it in SLD as a source
of labels, or as a size, and so on.
This is probably because the property accessors check for "word chars
only" regexp before stating they can actually handle the value:
static Pattern propertyPattern = Pattern.compile("(\\w+:)?(\\w+)");
I would say this is a case of being overzealous, since XML output
is not the only possible use of the data.
However, how can we tell apart that from a full xpath?
I guess we could decide to let go a little and assume there are other
chars past the word ones that make up a simple feature attribute?
What do you think?
Cheers
Andrea
