When providing a non-"library" SLD parameter, LAYERS should not be required.

[rgould@…]

When providing an SLD that is not a "library" SLD, LAYERS parameter should not
be required.

At the bottom is the SLD file that is used in the example (the one on
udig.refractions.net is not guaranteed to be there)

>> I think the problem is just that you are missing the mandatory "LAYERS="
parameter in your first URL. I haven't looked at SLD in a while, but I would
think that even when using user-defined styles in an SLD you still need to
specify the LAYERS= parameters.

> In the SLD 1.0.0 specification, section 6.4 it states that if the SLD
parameter is being used in the request, it replaces the LAYERS and STYLES
parameters. They also give an example that uses SLD but not LAYERS and STYLEs.
Same goes for the SLD_BODY parameter.

This is still relevant. Will look at it for next release.

Compilation is broken :

I guess you have changes for the prototype in mapogcsld.h that haven't been commited ?

Empty LAYERS parameter is also valid when SLD is provided: r12643

Closing.
