[postgis-users] Converting a LineString to a CompoundCurve

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi Simon, 

Thank you. Strk already helped me. I was actually looking for
ST_ForceCurve(), which is forcing my geometries into a CompoundCurve
geometry, because my target table has a constraint on this geometry
type. I don't care too much if the actual geometry is  a LineString or a
CircularArc (for this particular case). 

Thank you, 

Andreas
