[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-389) Add indexed shapefile datastore to geoserver

Add indexed shapefile datastore to geoserver
--------------------------------------------

         Key: GEOS-389
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-389
     Project: GeoServer
        Type: Improvement
Reporter: dblasby
Assigned to: dblasby
     Fix For: 1.3-rc3

Add this jar to the system, and make sure that people can tell the difference between it and the non-index variety!

Also, it appears that there's some information in the datastore parameters that isnt being displayed in the webapp (ie. documentation). This should also be checked into.

Hi Dave,

I also have an interest in seeing this issue resolved quickly. Do you know what the timeframe is? I would be happy to assist.

As I understand it, the indexed shapefile datastore still has some bugs, so I agree that it would be best to let the original shapefile datastore coexist with the indexed version.

Do you envision showing both "Shapefile" and "Indexed Shapefile" in the webapp's list of datastores? Or will we continue to show only "Shapefile" in the list, but update the Shapefile UI in the webapp to let the user somehow select which factory (ShapefileDatastoreFactory or IndexedShapefileDatastoreFactory) to use?

Perhaps you had other ideas?

Let me know if I can help.

Brock
