Description
If a datasource has NULL values, it is impossible to read data from the Http interface.
See SDF file attached to ticket #1228.
Using the test page: http://localhost/mapguide/mapagent/selectfeaturesform.html
Attempting to read features gives: "Value for LUMINAIRETYPE property is null"
Attempting various ways to overcome this with a filter always returns an empty result set: LUMINAIRETYPE <> NULL LUMINAIRETYPE != NULL NOT LUMINAIRETYPE = NULL
It seems as if any filter returns an empty result set: LUMINAIRETYPE LIKE '*' LUMINAIRETYPE = NULL LUMINAIRETYPE > 5
The last one should give an error as LUMINAIRETYPE is a string column.
Perhaps the data is somehow broken, but it is possible to view the data by creating a FeatureSource and using the "Preview" function in Maestro/Studio.
Hmm... Annoying... Trac has removed my linefeeds... Here it is with forced linefeeds:
