Approach

TinyOWS was written with the following things in mind:

  • KISS approach !
  • As OGC standard compliant as possible, aiming to support:
    • WFS (1.0 and 1.1)
    • FE (1.0 and 1.1)
  • Performance is important, maps are cool when they're quick to display
  • Clean source code

Code quality policy

All code must meet the following rules :

  • gcc -c99 -pedantic -Wall compile without any warning (make)
  • Unit test with Valgrind error and leak free (make valgrind)
  • Pass throught OGC CITE WFS-T tests (1.0.0 and 1.1.0 SF-0)

Code dynamically linked with the following other librairies:

  • PostgreSQL
  • libxml2
  • flex
