[postgis-users] postgis 1.2.1 manual

[Obe, Regina]

Forgot to mention.  I think the PDF manual on postgis site is still the
1.2.1 series (hmm actually it looks like the 1.0 since the one I have
marked 1.2.1 is newer), but definitely older than the online manual.

http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/postgis.pdf 

This one is definitely 1.2.1
http://www.pnine.org/postgis/manual_1_2_1.pdf 

Anyrate as I mentioned I think for the most part you will be fine using
the new online version and for the rare occassions where you are not e.g
using box2d, box3d instead of st_box2d st_box3d, just strip off the st_

Hope that helps,
Regina

Hi Stefan,

In the 1.2.1 release these new names did exist and mapped to the old
names.  In the 1.2.2 release - the old names will still exist, but are
intentionally left out of the documentation presumabley to prevent
confusion and to stop the use of the old names which will be eventually
deprecated and removed further down the road.

If you use this new documentation for your current development, you
should be just fine.

Hope that helps,
Regina

hi list,

maybe this is actually more for the postgis-developers-forum, but
anyway:

i am bit afraid, since postigis-function names seem to change from the
1.2.1 release to the 1.2.2 release of postgis. at least that's what the
current online documentation
(http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/ch06.html) is suggesting.

is the 1.2.2 release already available?

i am a bit disappointed though, because new function names would involve
that quite a lot of querys would have to be changed.

is there still a manual available for the 1.2.1 release (i am working
with that release at the moment and would need the documentation of that
release) and where can i get that?


thanks in advance, stefan
