[postgis] Importing ESRI-shapefiles, objectid 23?

[stahlhut]

Hi there!

First I would like to say thank you to all developers of thie
wonderful PostgreSQL-extension! I hope it's a nice replacement for the
ArcSDE we could never afford to buy :)

I tried to import an ArcInfo shapefile with the little loader program
and unfortunately got the message that objectid 23 isn't supported by
the loader - peeking into the sources I found out that id 23 relates
to SHPT_ARCM which isn't handled by the loader yet. Is there any
chance to get full compatability for the loading process - or is there
any documentation on this missing type which could help me extending
the loader ? - at the moment only very few types seem to be supported

Regards

Oliver

(grep for SHPType)

	if( obj->nSHPType == 5 ){  
	}else if( obj->nSHPType == 1){  
	}else if( obj->nSHPType == 3){
	}else if( obj->nSHPType == 13){

		printf ("\n\n**** Type is NOT SUPPORTED, type id = %d
****\n\n",obj->nSHPType);
