Allow new or edit layer page to recover from minor problems retrieving
attribute information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-4154
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4154
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: UI
Affects Versions: 2.1-beta1
Environment: all
Reporter: Tara Athan
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Priority: Minor
Attachments: LayerPageWorkaroundForAppSchema.patch
Without this fix, the New or Edit Layer page throws a null pointer exception
while trying to determine attribute information for an app-schema datastore.
While in the long term, it would be best to track down and fix the source of
the problem, which appears to be related to complex features, in the meantime
we can work around the problem by the submitted simple fix. There is a big gain
from this as it allows the layer.xml file to be generated by the GUI for
app-schema layers, and then the GML3 option becomes enabled in layer preview,
which is helpful for debugging mappings files. Put this together with a change
of convention to not store the mappings file in the same directory as the
datstore.xml file, and we have partial GUI support for app-schema, so only the
mappings file and schema need to be hand-coded -- (once the gui support for
Data Access returns.)

Virtualization is moving to the mainstream and overtaking non-virtualized
environment for deploying applications. Does it make network security
easier or more difficult to achieve? Read this whitepaper to separate the
two and get a better understanding.
