[Geoserver-devel] creating feature on fly

Hi,

I'm wandering if it’s possible to create and display feature on fly. What I
mean is: I have some polygon geometry (read from oracle) and I want to
present it in programmatic way. I do not want to create shape or anything
else, just draw it an fly.

Any suggestions?

(this post is more appropriate for geoserver-users, this is the devel list).

I think what you are talking about falls into the realm of "feature portrayal service" or "component wms", which GeoServer does not do.

One thing that might work for you are "Inline Features" with SLD. WIth Inline features you can post an SLD document to GeoServer which contains some feature information, with some styling and those features from the sld get rendered. There is an example in the sample requests that ship with GeoServer.
