[postgis-devel] Remove ST_Accum as it is array_agg

[Regina Obe]

Hmm I thought we had an additional reason for its existence but I forget what that is (something to do with some exhaustion I ran into with array_agg that I didn't have with ST_Accum), but maybe it's not relevant anymore as it's been a while since I've tried that.

 

BTW have we tested to see what happens if you create a nested array of geometries.  I forget if I ever tried.

 

array_agg from PostgreSQL 9.5+ supports that (at least it does with other arrays), I'm not sure if I ever exercised that with ST_Accum.

I’m OK w/ that.

Hi,

 

We have ST_Accum. It is the same as array_agg, I believe it was done before postgres had array_agg. All supported Postgres versions now have array_agg - how about removing ST_Accum?
