Load a WFS feature table using an XML query.
Use case
QueryParameters objects can’t represent all possible queries that can be made against a WFS feature service. For example, query parameters don’t support wildcard searches. You can provide queries as raw XML strings, allowing you to access query functionality not available with QueryParameters.
How to use the sample
Run the sample and view the data loaded from the WFS feature table.
How it works
- Create a
WFSFeatureTableand aFeatureLayerto visualize the table. - Set the feature request mode to
manualCache. - Call
populateFromServiceto populate the table with only those features returned by the XML query.
Relevant API
- FeatureLayer
- WFSFeatureTable
- WFSFeatureTable.axisOrder
- WFSFeatureTable.populateFromService
