[Geoserver-users] json output on tables with geometry

Hi list,

Geoserver (1.6 beta4) returns a NullPointerException when you try to get
outputformat=json for a table/view without a geometry. GML output works okay
in this case.

Is it viable to return GeoJSON in this case without a geometry, i.e. a
feature with only attributes?

Does anyone know if the OpenLayers GeoJSON parser will still parse this?

Best regards,
Bart

Looks similar to a fixed issue:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1365

thought your case is a little different. Care to open a jira issue for this one?

I have no idea... maybe Tim will know more.
