I am trying to create a destination shape file that is a sub-set of a
source shape file, based on a join to a dbf.
Poly.shp is the source shape file. Listing.dbf has the list of records
that I want from poly.shp.
In pseudocode I want something like:
Select * from poly where id in (select id from listing)
Or:
Select * from poly where poly.id = listing.id
But I keep getting all of the records from poly (the source table) my
statement is as follows:
ogr2ogr -sql
"SELECT * FROM poly LEFT JOIN '/map_data/listings/listing.dbf'.listing
ON poly.Id = listing.Id"
test1 /map_data/wy83-wf/poly.shp
It seems like I need to change LEFT JOIN to INNER JOIN, but that does
not appear to be supported. I tried to re-order my JOIN ... ON clause,
but with no joy.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
