CssParameter for stroke-opacity ignored in PolygonSymbolizer

[myOpenLayersUName]

The following value is ignored in an SLD <PolygonSymbolizer>'s Stroke tag:
stroke-opacity

As far as I can tell, the reason is because mapogcsld.c's msSLDParseStroke method uses the following line to set this value in the style:

psStyle->color.alpha = (int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);

While that line works for LineSymbolizer's it should be as follows for PolygonSymbolizer's:

psStyle->outlinecolor.alpha = (int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);

Unfortunately, I don't know how I would know which Symbolizer I'm dealing with at that point in the code so I can't suggest a fix but I'm sure someone who knows this code would be able to come up with something fairly quickly.

Well, this probably isn't the proper way to do this, but I've simply put both lines of code into the block that sets the stroke-opacity in msSLDParseStroke and it works for both LineSymbolizer and PolygonSymbolizer now:

    :

    else if (strcasecmp(psStrkName, "stroke-opacity") == 0)
    {
        if(psCssParam->psChild &&  psCssParam->psChild->psNext &&
           psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)
        {
            psStyle->color.alpha =
                (int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);
            psStyle->outlinecolor.alpha =
                (int)(atof(psCssParam->psChild->psNext->pszValue)*255);
        }
     }

     :

It's what we're going with unless I learn it's a bad idea through this venue at some point.

The title says 'stroke-opacity' is ignored, but then the rest of the comments relate to the alpha only.

Perhaps if you could include an example (SLD) that would help understand the issue?

This was the PolygonSymbolizer I was trying to use. Everything was rendered appropriately except the stroke-opacity. When I changed the lines as indicated above, it worked but I really have little idea whether it's correct or appropriate.

The original message discusses stoke-opacity with PointSymbolizers (among other things), but the second and latter messages talk about stoke-opacity in the PolygonSymbolizer.
