[postgis-users] Early Special: 1.0.0 Released (Doc for frenchusers updated)

[Mark Cave-Ayland]

Hi Mike,
 
I'm afraid that the instructions I posted originally to the mailing list are
out of date by quite a margin (see
http://postgis.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2004-June/004960.html
). I will try and find some time to update them and commit to CVS when I
find a spare moment - the hardest part is actually setting up the MingW
environment rather than the compilation itself. If you would be interested
in using these instructions to produce something more up to date (I can
support you through email if required) then I would be happy to review and
commit as a README.WIN32 file or equivalent.
 
 
Kind regards,
 
Mark.

Jean/List:

Out of curiosity, are there equivalent instructions in English anywhere for
building Win32 native PostGIS?  I've tried numerous times before, but just
never quite got it right.  I could probably fumble my way through the
French...but English would be much easier.

Just for you list'ers an early announcement of 1.0.0:



After a long series of release candidates, the much anticipated 1.0.0

version of PostGIS has been released. The 1.0.0 version includes

substantial changes over the original 0.X series, most importantly a new

on-disk format which is both more compact and faster to access. The

1.0.0 version is compatible with PostgreSQL 7.2 and higher, but is most

tighhtly integrated with the PostgreSQL 8.0 and higher releases.



New features in 1.0.0 include:



     * Smaller and faster on-disk formats

     * Improved selectivity estimates, including support for join

selectivity and sub-selects

     * Hex-based canonical format, for driftless dump and restore

     * 4-D geometries

     * New functions:

           o Polygonize

           o AsGML

           o ForceRHR

           o SnapToGrid

           o Geometry Constructors

     * Improved JDBC interface with jdbc2 support

     * 64-bit platform support

     * Performance improvements for common boolean operators



Current users of PostGIS will want to read the README file on upgrading

with particular attention to the use of the utils/postgis_restore.pl

    

script.
