[postgis-users] PostgreSQL 7.3 Support

[carl anderson]

under PostgreSQL 7.3

createdb -T template0 test;
psql test < postgis.sql
psql < spatial_ref_sys.sql

succeeds

after that

psql test < postgis_undef.sql fails

first I edited postgis_undef.sql to have
drop AGGREGATE extent (geometry);
drop AGGREGATE collect (geometry);

but then
   DROP AGGREGATE
   DROP AGGREGATE
   ERROR:  cache lookup of opclass 34433 failed

of course the oid of the opclass is specific to my installation.


It appears that PostgreSQL 7.3 uses stronger operator/function/operator 
class
type checking;

I have previously had success with an undef using
    drop type geometry cascade;
which won't work with older PostgreSQL versions



I checked the Mapserver CVS and did not find any change to mappostgis.c 
there.
Will anyone there submit a patch so that testing with mapserver can be 
made?
