Description From Bart van den Eijnden 2004-04-08 04:38:40

It would be nice to have a list of possible values for a selected column, for
situations in which the user is unfamiliar with the data.

This could be done through the DISTINCT function of the WFS interface (although
I don't think Mapserver WFS supports this one at the moment ... ).

<ogc:Functions>
<ogc:Function_Names>
<ogc:Function_Name nArgs="1">MIN</ogc:Function_Name>
<ogc:Function_Name nArgs="1">MAX</ogc:Function_Name>
<ogc:Function_Name nArgs="1">COUNT</ogc:Function_Name>
<ogc:Function_Name nArgs="1">DISTINCT</ogc:Function_Name>
</ogc:Function_Names>
</ogc:Functions>

this is a good suggestion and one that we have discussed internally a couple of
times.

updated version to 1.99

Changed target to 2.1. 

Paul, is it possible to get it done for 1.99?

Changed Target Milestone to FUTURE. (Enhancements may be moved from this target 
to specific "versioned" targets after product design review cycles.)
