v15 v16 145 145 }}} 146 146 147 === Notes === 147 148 148 149 In order to make the proposed change both backwards and forwards compatible. Configuration files created by the 3.3.0 version of the WMS Provider will continue to write the value of the <Format> element as was previously done in FDO 3.2.2. This would allow continued compatibility with applications written for 3.2.2. At the same time the FDO 3.3 WMS provider configuration file would be modified to contain a new <!FormatType> element that would only be evaluated by the 3.3 version of the WMS provider and subsequent releases. FDO 3.3 would look for <!FormatType> first and if not found evaluate <Format>. FDO 3.2.2 would continue to evaluate <Format> and ignore <!FormatType>. There would some duplication of information, but applications written on both versions of the WMS Provider should continue to work as designed. The <Format> would be deemed deprecated and removed once forward compatibility support is no longer required.
