Hi,

I do not know what is changed in the code but I try to explain what OJ used to 
do so far.

Usually a WMS service is using the same base URL for GetCapabilities and 
GetMap.  This is the easy case.  WMS server can also use a different url for 
GetMap and advertise that in the GetCapabilities.  I theory this case is easy 
too.  Just read the GetMap URL from the capabilities and use it.
However, experience says that if GetMap base URL is different from 
GetCapabilities base URL it is more often due to misconfigured server than 
because of the real situation.
In that case OpenJUMP is telling the user that the server is advertising 
another URL for GetMaps and asks if the user would like to use that.

GetCapabilities = URL_1 and GetMap = URL 1 -> use URL 1
GetCapabilities = URL_1 and GetMap = URL 2 -> ask if user wants to use URL 1of 
URL 2 for GetMaps.

This is a good way to do it because it handles both the case when GetMap must 
use a different URL and the case when WMS server is just poorly configured and 
actually URL 1 should be used.  If the change means that URL 2 is selected 
automatically I would say it should be reverted.

Aihe: [JPP-Devel] OpenJUMP 1.4.1rc1

Hi all,

I'd like to release 1.4.1 within a few days.
Every test you can do with the very last version is welcome.

I have prepared 3 bundles here :
http://geo.michaelm.free.fr/OpenJUMP/resources/OpenJUMP1.4.1/

- openjump-1.4.1rc1.zip : should be equivalent to next NB. It is the basic 
multi-OS version

- openjump-installer.exe : same as previous version, but within an installer 
for windows

- openjump-1.4.1rc1-s.zip : same as 1.4.1rc1 with Sextante and many other 
plugins

Please, report anything wrong.
Note for regular users (Peppe, Jukka, Uwe...) : last change I did (today) are
- fix bug 3327322 WMS-getMapRequest incorrect (patch from Wilfried Hornburg).
- change dissolve (union by attribute) and calculate areas and length according 
to last Peppe's remarks
