[postgis-users] Live access to PostGIS from MapInfo

Hi Rob(ert)!
Good idea! (but no luck)
It shows that it fetches some records from the table -- surprisingly this is
not a spatial query based on the bounding box of the initial view as it is
recorded in the mapinfo_mapcatalog table. Then, after fetching some 50
records (out of 560), the last query is the following:
select c.relhasrules, c.relkind, c.relhasoids from pg_catalog.pg_namespace
u, pg_catalog.pg_class c
  where u.oid = c.relnamespace and c.relname = E'dummy_table' and u.nspname
= E'public'

This query is valid and produces one row: my table has NO RULES (column
value = "f"), is a PLAIN TABLE (value = "r") and has NO OIDs (value =
"f")...

Curiously, this last query seems to have little to do with any "Spatial
Constraint" (as is MapInfo complaining about)

So, still no clue here... Maybe something can be deducted from the logs of
the pgsqlODBC...
