Description

When opening a (gml) WFS layer from geoserver with values such as:

0.01206198041412

the resulting field seen in the properties of the layer is:

Type QString
Type name xsd:decimal

This prevents certain operations on the field, which is interpreted as a string.

The WFS 2.0 plugin does parse the values correctly, as type double, type name Real.

Interpret 'decimal' fields as double in WFS provider.

Fixes #11864.

#1 Updated by Roel Huybrechts over 8 years ago

I think this can be fixed by adding 'decimal' to the checks in qgswfsprovider?
