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
