Description:
I meant to get to this today, but if someone specifies a schema.xml file whose attributes don't _exactly_ match the names of the backend database the server fails very miserable, during getFeature requests. And very cryptically as well. So the reType function in FeatureTypeInfo should throw much more informative errors, with information as to what was read wrong, what was expected, how to fix the problem, ect. If anyone wants to take this go for it, it's pretty easy (and should be done soon, because it's only gonna cause others pain). If not I'll try to get it in monday or tuesday.
