Description:

When requesting json from the WFS service in GeoServer 2.2.5 we got only the properties we requested.

$ curl -s ‘http://127.0.0.1:8080/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&typeName=sf:archsites&MAXFEATURES=1&outputFormat=application/json&VERSION=1.1.0&propertyName=cat’
{“type”:“FeatureCollection”,“features”:[{“type”:“Feature”,“id”:“archsites.1”,“geometry”:null,“properties”:{“cat”:1}}]}

When doing the same with GeoServer 2.3.0 we first get an exception since the propertyName parser seems to be broken.

$ curl -s ‘http://127.0.0.1:8080/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&typeName=sf:archsites&MAXFEATURES=1&outputFormat=application/json&VERSION=1.1.0&propertyName=cat’

</ows:Exception>
</ows:ExceptionReport>

So lets try to request cat,cat instead:

$ curl -s ‘http://127.0.0.1:8080/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&amp;typeName=sf:archsites&amp;MAXFEATURES=1&amp;outputFormat=application/json&amp;VERSION=1.1.0&amp;propertyName=cat,cat’
{“type”:“FeatureCollection”,“features”:[{“type”:“Feature”,“id”:“archsites.1”,“geometry”:

{“type”:“Point”,“coordinates”:[593493,4914730]}

,“geometry_name”:“the_geom”,“properties”:{“cat”:1,“str1”:“Signature Rock”}}],“crs”:{“type”:“EPSG”,“properties”:

{“code”:“26713”}

}}

Now we also got the geometry and str1.

This is a problem for us since we get OOME’s since the responses are all of a sudden very big.

Am I missing some other neat way of excluding the geometry?
