[GRASS-dev] Vect_get_num_lines() versus Vect_get_num_primitives()

[Markus Neteler]

Hi,

trying the new Python-Vector API, I found a discrepancy which
I would like to understand:

On 'roads' in Spearfish, v.info reports
   Number of lines:        825
based on Vect_get_num_primitives(&Map, GV_LINE)

If I use in the Python API the Vect_get_num_lines(map),
I get
Number of lines: 2876

Difference:
- Vect_get_num_primitives uses map->plus.n_llines 
- Vect_get_num_lines      uses map->plus.n_lines

Which one is right? Probably Vect_get_num_lines() should
use n_lines as well and we need an extra function to 
report segments?
