<div dir="ltr">Hi devs,<br><br>I'm coding an application that uses OL vector editing and WFS transactions quite heavily.<br><br>I use a temporary OpenLayers.Layer.Vector for editing, moving stuff to a OpenLayers.Layer.WFS as the user makes edits. This is a bit clumsy and complicated but works. The reason why I'm doing this is because OpenLayers.Layer.WFS only supports GET and is also loading features on demand (hmm is this correct?) which doesn't fit my needs. Note that I do not add the OpenLayers.Layer.WFS to a map, I only use create/commit the WFS transactions.<br>
<br>I would like to use something like a static/manually triggered WFS (supporting POST and filtering) source to an OpenLayers.Layer.Vector that syncs changes to the WFS source which then can be commited programmatically.<br>
<br>Is this sort of what OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS (which I think is beeing worked on?) is supposed to be used for? Or would it be sensible to make something more of OpenLayers.Layer.WFS instead?<br><br>Either way, I'm interested in (trying) to help out if this seems like something you would like to support in OL, and can probably do it as a part of the current project as it would simplify things for me I think. <br>
