Re: [udig-users] Oracle: sdo_aggr_mbr vs user_sdo_geom_metadata

Hi Brandon.

We had the previous version of our oracle support use the geom
metadadata table; and I after treading the oracle manuals I though
this was the correct approach to determine bounds.

I got lots of negative feedback; apparently this table is not often
filled in with the correct information and cannot be trusted.  With
that in mind, when geotools created their "jdbc-ng" rewrite for oracle
support they did not even considering taking the geom metadata table
code used previous.

If you like we can make the feature request for GeoTools and see what they say.

With respect to SELECT SDO_AGGR_MBR ... I had thought that we avoided
doing this for uDig 1.2.0 - instead assuming a default max extent
based on the coordinate reference system.

When Maurcio returns from vacation we can ask him, he performed the
oracle testing for 1.2.0.
