Hi,
I found a strange behavior with styles and virtual services.
I moved style 'simple_roads' to workspace 'topp' and layer 'tiger_roads' belonging to workspace 'tiger' can use that style.
Performing a virtual service GetCapabilities request in the context of 'tiger' workspace:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/tiger/ows?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
will list layer 'tiger_roads' that will contains a reference to 'topp:simple_roads' style:
<Style>
<Name>topp:simple_roads</Name>
<Title>Default Styler for simple road segments</Title>
<Abstract>Light red line, 2px wide</Abstract>
<LegendURL width="20" height="20">
<Format>image/png</Format>
<OnlineResource xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple" xlink:href="http://localhost:8080/geoserver/tiger/ows?s
ervice=WMS&request=GetLegendGraphic&format=image%2Fpng&width=20&height=20&layer=tiger_roads&style=simple_roads"/>;
</LegendURL>
</Style>
The provided GetLegend URL will not work and there is no way to use style 'topp:simple_roads' when performing a virtual service request in
the context of 'tiger' workspace:
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/tiger/wms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&TRANSPARENT=true&STYLES=topp:simple_ro
ads&LAYERS=tiger_roads&SRS=EPSG%3A4326&WIDTH=476&HEIGHT=768&BBOX=-74.00768280029297%2C40.71910858154297%2C
-73.92597198486328%2C40.85094451904297
this request will fail saying that style 'topp:simple' is unknown.
What should be the correct behavior of this ? In my opinion style 'topp:simple_roads' should not have been listed in the virtual service
GetCapabilities result.
When chatting about this with Andrea he raised a corner case ... what to do if 'topp:simple_roads' is the default style and we are making a
query without any style in the context of 'tiger' workspace virtual service ?
If the default style of layer doesn't belong to the virtual service workspace the layer should not be listed in the virtual service
GetCapabilities result ? Or internally we apply some kind of default style ?geo
