[TinyOWS-users] Non-ASCII characters not accepted in layer title

Jukka,

Special characters must be handled in the server responses and in the database transactions.

That's why was addedto TinyOWS the following config attributes:


/tinyows at encoding /map/metadata at wfs_encoding  
/tinyows at db_encoding /map/metadata at tinyows_db_encoding  
GetCapabilities and other WFS requests seems to be broken when the xml response finds a character that 
doesn't belong to the current encoding (UTF-8 by default).

I suggest that you set the tinyows at encoding (config.xml) or map/metadata at wfs_encoding (config.map) to 
a ISO-8859-X, where X takes values from 1 to 9, to support the special characters you handle.

Cheers from México

Hi,

It looks like adding this layer into config.xml breaks GetCapabilities and it seems to be because of "MML-lentokentät". With "MML-lentokentat" it is accepted. Is this limitation coming from the standard?

<layer retrievable="1"
     writable="0"
     ns_prefix="lv"
     ns_uri="http://latuviitta.fi/"
         name="mml_airport"
         title="MML-lentokentät v. 2011"
        abstract="Maanmittauslaitoksen 1:1000000 airport-taso" />
