[MapServer-wms]Inverse time interval in a GetMap request doesn't return map

Reported by: nsavard@mapgears.com Assigned to: assefa

Description 

When a GetMap request is issued with a time parameter set to a time interval in
which the first value is greater than the second value, no map and no error is
returned.  The image properties states that the image cannot be displayed
because it contains error.



Example of such is request:

http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv_43?map=/path/to/time_test/htdocs/wms_time.map&
request=GetMap&Version=1.1.1&LAYERS=time&
Time=2004-01-01%2015:10:00/2004-01-01%2014:10:00

This is how the metadata is set in the map file (WMS server):

  METADATA
    "DESCRIPTION" "time"
    "wms_title" "time"
    "wms_timeitem"  "TIME"
    "wms_timeextent"  "2004-01-01/2004-02-01"   
    "wms_timedefault"  "2004-01-01 14:10:00"
  END



Found on Fedora Core 2

  • milestone set to FUTURE.
I have updated the documentation for wms_timeextent value to indicate that the 
user is responsible for now to set a valid time range and only one range is 
supported.


I am tagging this as FUTURE enhancement, so we can do more complex support for 
the time range and also validate the time ranges that the user is using.
