Hi all,
I don't know wheter this is the right mailing list. (Sorry if not).
I want to use the Cascading WFS function of the Geoserver WFS.
Unfortunately I didn't find an documentation for this issue. I only
read, that it's possible and that it has something to to with the
WFSDataStore. So I used this DataStore to get the Capabilities from
the Data-Source-WFS to put the FeatureyTypes of it into the
Capabilities document. But I have the feeling that I work in the wrong
code segment (CapabilitiesTransformer.handleFeatureTypes()). Is there
a kind of tutorial or something like that which describes how it is
possilble to realize Cascading? Or can you tell me how and where I
have to go?
Thanks for answers,
Regards,
Thorsten

You don't need to touch the code. Simply configure a new WFSDataStore
from the "new datastore" link in the UI pointing it to the caps of
the WFS server you want to cascade, and then treat it as a normal
data store.
That said, the WFS data store is not very much maintained, and the
WFS servers out there unfortunately often don't live up to the
OGC specification, so you might encounter issues. Let us know.
