How to add wms layer from geoserver?

[FrankPascuzzi]

I'm trying to add a wms layer that is served from an instance of geoserver using the AGSWMSLayer class but I haven't had any luck.

For example, using the layer preview option from the geoserver console we have a layer with the following URL format:


ourhostname/geoserver/esi/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.0&request=GetMap&layers=esi:esi-environmental-sustainability-index-2005_human-sustenance&styles=&bbox=-180.0,-55.792,180.0,83.667&width=851&height=330&srs=EPSG:4326&format=image%2Fpng


I tried a number of ways for pulling in this layer including the following:


NSURL* wmsurl = [NSURL URLWithString: @"http://ourhostname/geoserver/esi/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.0&request=GetMap&styles=&bbox=-180.0,-5..."];
   
AGSWMSLayer* wmsLayer = [[AGSWMSLayer alloc] initWithURL:wmsurl];
                            
[self.mapView addMapLayer:wmsLayer withName:@"esi:esi-environmental-sustainability-index-2005_human-sustenance"];


I'm also having a difficult time getting any error information to help with the debugging.

Any help sure would be appreciated.

This is not exactly the same case, but the logic should be pretty similar in this post: WMTS Services
