[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-937) DWithin filters should honour the units set in the distance element

DWithin filters should honour the units set in the distance element
-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-937
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-937
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: WFS
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Ian Turton
         Assigned To: Andrea Aime
            Priority: Minor

Currently GeoServer only handles the distance of a DWithin filter in the unit the data is stored in, which is inconvenient and not in keeping with the filter specification which indicates you can set a units attribute in the distance element to specify how big the circle should be.

While not in any way life threatening this is annoying and would be good to fix, however I've no idea how far under the hood it goes and if in fact this is really a geotools problem or not.
