[postgis-devel] CLUSTER in 8.3

[Paul Ramsey]

Maybe I'm doing something wrong... here's a log of how I exercised this:

pramsey=# create table ttt as select * from counties;
SELECT
pramsey=# create index ttt_gix on ttt using gist(the_geom);
CREATE INDEX
pramsey=# clusture
pramsey=# select count(*) from ttt;
 count
-------
  3141
(1 row)

pramsey=# cluster ttt using ttt_gix;
CLUSTER
pramsey=# select count(*) from ttt;
 count
-------
     0
(1 row)

pramsey=# select version();
                                                           version
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)
(1 row)

pramsey=# select postgis_full_version();
                                postgis_full_version
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
