Buffer command does not buffer all selected features

[ronnielouie]

On any web layout, using any viewer, select a moderately large number of features (>50 or so).

Choose to buffer the features.

Expected result: All selected features to be buffered.

Actual result: Only a subset of the features are buffered.

Submitted fix for 2.0.x stream for basic weblayout.

 http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/changeset/3093

Fixes for trunk stream and for Flexible weblayout will need to be addressed at a later date.

[ronnielouie]

The fix submitted for  http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/changeset/3093 was a temporary fix particular to the 2.0.x stream.

The correct solution is to fix the limitation issue in the GenerateFilter API. When this is done, the GenerateFilters method will no longer be available.

Since the GenerateFilters? method is temporary, the code that calls it should do a check to see if it exists before calling it, otherwise use GenerateFilter?.

For example, in PHP:

if(method_exists($selectionObject,'GenerateFilters?')) {

$filters = $selectionObject->GenerateFilters?($layer,$layerClassName,$scnt); $selString = $filters->GetItem?(0);

} else {

$selString = $selectionObject->GenerateFilter?($layer,$layerClassName);

}

This will save you from having to alter your code again once the GenerateFilters? method is removed.

Can this be closed? I don't think that these changes got ported back to trunk, and GenerateFilter? may no longer exist?

[jbirch]

Duh, I mean GenerateFilters?.

Closing. If still a problem with 2.1, please re-open and reset the version.
