[OpenLayers-Users] What's the Difference Between feature.data and feature.attributes?

[Eric Lemoine]

Hi

For information "data" is in the base Feature class while "attributes"
is in the Feature.Vector class. "data" is there for historical reason
and isn't to be used when using Feature.Vector, so you should use
"attributes". This is particularly true if you're to use a Format to
serialize features, or to style your features based on property
values.
