Hi
QGIS server has its own GetStyle method because implementation of the
server started based on WMS 1.3/SLD1.1. It seems OGC GetStyles is only
present in WMS1.1.1/SLD1.0 and has been dropped afterwards. So it seems
to me the bug in the server code is that GetStyles is directed to QGIS
GetStyle.
I'm aware that WMS 1.1.1/SLD1.0 are very frequently used. So a patch to
add OGC GetStyles behaviour for 1.1.1 is very welcome.
Regards,
Marco

Hi,
It's just because the STYLE parameter is mandatory in GetMap
Request and GetStyle is based on it.
If QGIS-Server will implement multi-styles, STYLE parameter
will be usefull like in GetMap.
Thanks,
just to be sure: are you saying that GetStyle implementation in
QGIS Mapserver is based on GetMap and hence the parameter is
needed (even if unused) or that the OGC standard says that
GetStyle is kind of sub method of GetMap and it requires all
mandatory parameters of GetMap?
Yes, but GetStyle is not an OGC defined method.
The method defined by OGC is GetStyles to retrieve all the layer's
styles.
You can open a bug, and discussing about GetStyle and GetStyles
request.
Thanks, I'll do, but first I need to know why the QGIS Server code is
as ist is, I can't believe it's just an error.
I'm still confused: I know that GetStyles is an OGC method and
GetStyle isn't, but QGIS apparently doesn't, see line 705 in
qgis_map_serv.cpp :
request.compare( "GetStyles", Qt::CaseInsensitive ) == 0 ||
request.compare( "GetStyle", Qt::CaseInsensitive )
so, it seems like QGIS server will serve both GetStyle and GetStyles
exactly the same.
Second point (that was my original problem) is why the STYLE parameter
that is both unused and out of the specifications is mandatory, unless
I'm completely missing the point, I dont' think it is a good idea to
keep it.
So, please explain me why QGIS Server behaves like that, and if there
is not a good reason, just tell me and I can provide a patch to remove
that stuff.
