BinaryLogicOpType maxOccurs="unbounded"

[huub fleuren]

Hi List,

Today i filed a bug concerning a wrong interpretation (afaik) of the
<Filter /> specification of <BinaryLogicOpType />

BinaryLogicOpType is defined as:

<xsd:choice minOccurs="2" maxOccurs="unbounded">

But mapserver doesn't work like this when it uses an SLD xml
It wants every operartor to be binary which leads to awkward xml
like this:

<Filter>
<Or>
 <And>
  <And>
   <And>
    <1.../>
    <2.../>
   </And>
   <3.../>
  </And>
  <4.../>
 </And>
 <5.../>
</Or>
</Filter>

the specification is intuitively more logical

<Filter>
<Or>
 <And>
  <1.../>
  <2.../>
  <3.../>
  <4.../>
 </And>
 <5.../>
</Or>
</Filter>

Mapserver won't crash (it just doesn't look at the third etc.
critera), so... though it isn't strickly a bug, it bugs.
