[Geoserver-users] count of features

All,

Is there a way in Geoserver to request just the number of features that
match a certain query? Is there a filter or function that would match this
SQL:

SELECT count(*) FROM feature_table WHERE name='Steve' (or state='Alaska',
etc)

Thanks,
Steve

Yes, you can set resultType="hits" as an attribute of the wfs:GetFeature element in your request XML. I believe this is only available in WFS 1.1.

Hope this helps,
