Hello List,
I’m new to GeoServer and need some great help from you guys. I’m building an web application to find shortest route. So, I need to know how to send requests from a external JSP page into GeoServer. I’m using PostGIS and pgrouting as well. Please help me.
Thanks and regards,
damith
Hi Damith,
You could do this is a couple of ways. The first would be to hook some javascript into your page, and use ajax to send asynchronous requests to a geoserver instance. The OpenLayers library has great support for both WMS and WFS request. The downside being that you have to deal with the "same origin policy", which restricts ajax requests going out to a server other than the one serving the javascript. In which case you need a proxy to get around.
The other option would be to write java code to do this and make requests using the java http libraries. Or alternatively include geotools in your web application which has support for ogc services. Once you have java code that can access your service you should be able to call it from your jsp page.
Hope that helps.
