Uniform resource locator (URL) of the namespace for the feature type.
Name of the feature type.
Alias of the namespace for the feature type.
Feature type description to be reported in the capabilities document, as a document of type XMLTYPE.
String to be used to populate the xsi:schemaLocation
attribute in the feature type XSD. If this parameter is null, a string is automatically generated.
Primary key column in the feature table or view identified in dataSrc
. If a feature type table or view has a multicolumn primary key, use a semicolon to separate the columns in the primary key. For example: 'COL1;COL2'
Column information for the spatial column or columns in the feature table identified in dataSrc
., as an object of type MDSYS.STRINGLIST (for example, MDSYS.STRINGLIST('GEOM_COL1','GEOM_COL2')
.
Spatial column of type SDO_GEOMETRY in the feature table.
Namespace of the feature member element that will contain feature instances in a feature collection. If this parameter is null, the default is: http://www.opengis.net/gml
Name of the feature member element that will contain feature instances in a feature collection. If this parameter is null, the default is featureMember
.
User-defined namespace of the spatial reference system (coordinate system) associated with the spatial data for the feature type. This namespace (if specified) is also used to generate the srsName
attribute in the <boundedBy>
element of the FeatureCollection result generated for the GetFeature request.
Namespace alias of the namespace of the spatial reference system (coordinate system) associated with the spatial data for the feature type.
Namespace of the WFS feature collection within which this feature type instances can occur.
Name of the WFS feature collection within which this feature type instances can occur.
A string value: Y
means that the geometries inside instances of this feature type are GML3.1.1 compliant; N
means that the geometries inside instances of this feature type are GML 2.1.2 compliant.
String formatted representation of the content of the primary key column or (for a multicolumn primary key) columns. For example, if ROAD_ID is the primary key column of type NUMBER, specify MDSYS.STRINGLIST('to_char(ROAD_ID)')
. To specify multiple strings in the MDSYS.STRINGLIST type constructor, separate each with a comma. The list of string formatted primary key columns should be specified in the same order as the primary key columns specified in the pkeyCol
parameter.
Name of the underlying table if the feature type will by defined on a view based on a single underlying table. The published feature type will be based on the view, specified in the dataSrc
parameter (user-name.view-name). Do not enter a value for the viewTableName
parameter if the feature type is based on a table or on a multitable view.
Primary key column of the table specified in the viewTableName
parameter, if the feature type will by defined on a view based on a single underlying table.
If the feature type is based on a view defined on a single table, and if the view has one or more formatted primary key columns, this parameter represents a list of string formatted primary key columns in the underlying table that correspond to the string formatted primary key columns in the view (specified by formattedkeyCols
parameter). For example, if ROAD_ID is the primary key column of type NUMBER, specify MDSYS.STRINGLIST('to_char(ROAD_ID)')
. To specify multiple strings in the MDSYS.STRINGLIST type constructor, separate each with a comma.
If feature type is not based on a single table view, or if the feature type is based on a single table view but the feature type does not have formatted primary key columns, this parameter should be null.
List of columns that must be returned in the GetFeature request, irrespective of the columns requested. (The requested columns will be returned in all cases.) If this parameter is omitted, all columns are mandatory (that is, all columns will be returned). However, if this parameter is specified as NULL, no columns are mandatory (that is, only the requested columns will be returned). To specify column names, use the MDSYS.STRINGLIST type constructor as in the following example: MDSYS.STRINGLIST('COL1', 'COL2', 'COL5')
Usage Notes
For information about support for Web Feature Services, see Chapter 15.
