[Geoserver-users] WFS request from a JSP script

GeoServer GeoServer User

Hi,

I think it's kinda off-topic, but... How do I make a WFS request in my
JSP/Java code? I've got my getFeature string but I don' know how to
issue it to my GeoServer/WFS server.

I don't need to handle the result. Just the whole XML as output is fine.

Thanks,
Celso

Hi Luiz,

I can think of a couple of ways to do this.

You could forward to or include another page (in this case a geoserver request) using a servlet (the appropriate methods (forward,include) are on the RequestDispatcher interface. You can also use the jsp:forward and jsp:include tags to do the same thing.

You could make the request from the client using JavaScript/Ajax and include it in your html.

You could do this from java code using a simple http connection. A couple of examples here.

Hope that helps.
