[postgis-devel] Prepared Geometry API

Ah okay. Yes I'm in agreement with you on this one.  Introducing an
index key to use prepared geometry will be annoying and I need it mostly
in subselects. I suppose we can't figure out some way to dynamically
define an index by some hash algorithm, or are we doing that already? 

I didn't understand most of what Paul said so take my affirmation and
comments with a grain of salt. 

Thanks,
Regina

Ha ha, in general no - it's a very useful tool ;)  I'm just visualising 
subselects with generate_series() used to generate pseudo primary keys 
to feed into the new prepared functions...


ATB,
