Re: [udig-devel] Create feature in postgis
|
There is a somewhat hidden way of creating a layer directly in
postGIS. However I believe there is a bug that hasn't been fixed. If
the FeatureType has a String attribute it tries to make a field that
has a limit of Integer.MAX_VALUE. Which postgis doesn't like. But
you can play with this functionality:
1. Import your Postgis into the catalog
2. Select the Postgis service (not GeoResource) in the catalog
3. Right click Select Operations>Create Feature Type
Voila a new feature type is created. Add it to a map and start editing.

Hello. I'd like to ask, as always, a newbie question. When I create
a layer i can edit it and "export" it to a shape file. Then with
shp2sql i can easily import it in PostGis.
I'm asking if this is the unique way to do this is to do it with
this procedure, or there is a fastest way, for example create a
layer directly in Postgis or similar.
Btw, i am using the test release RC 13 under Leopard, and as far I'm
gonna test the application and eventually let you know of strages
behaviours or potential bugs. Actually, it seems that release 13
work flawlessy.
