-----------------------------------
Summary: Mark/reset in WMS Capabilities document generation
Key: GEOS-5084
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-5084
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: David Winslow
Assignee: David Winslow
Fix For: 2.1.x
The GeoServer WMS capabilities response does not always generate valid XML - streaming output sometimes means that we have already sent the start of a capabilities document to a client before we encounter a misconfigured or unavailable layer, at which point we generate an error message, but it's invalid XML at that point. We have a buffer strategy that avoids committing the response until the entire message is generated, but this is slow (you have to generate the entire document before you can start sending it.)
The improvement to be added here is to add a new output strategy which buffers only the layer which is currently being processed - and simply hides layers that are not properly configured.
