Hi all,

I'm currently working on a front-end grid that requests features via WFS 2.0 
and loads them using OpenLayers. 
OpenLayers 4 doesn't support parsing of GML3 used by WFS 2.0, but I can return 
features as GeoJSON by setting the output format as follows:

    OUTPUTFORMAT
        NAME "geojson"
        DRIVER "OGR/GEOJSON"
        MIMETYPE "application/json; subtype=geojson"
        FORMATOPTION "FORM=SIMPLE"
        FORMATOPTION "STORAGE=memory"
    END

Then setting WEB > METADATA > "wfs_getfeature_formatlist" 
"gml,geojson,application/json"

WFS requests  are then made with URL parameters such as 
&service=WFS&version=2.0.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=MyLayer&outputFormat=application%2Fjson&startIndex=0&count=20

Everything works fine including paging, but in order to calculate how many 
"pages" of data I need to get the numberMatched property. 
This can be turned on for GML3 using WEB > METADATA > 
"wfs_compute_number_matched" "true" (as noted at 
https://mapserver.org/fr/ogc/wfs_server.html#web-object-metadata). 

If I then request GML with outputFormat=gml3 the GML response includes 
numberMatched="6607" (the number of features in the layer). 

As GML3 features can't be rendered in OpenLayers I'd like to get this property 
added to the GeoJSON output. This appears to be implemented in GeoServer. 
I was wondering if this is something that can be configured somewhere in the 
Mapfile perhaps as an option for the OGR/GEOJSON driver 
(https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/geojson.html). 
The timeStamp, numberReturned are also missing from the GeoJSON output. 

Any ideas or hints appreciated,

Seth
