[Qgis-developer] problem in creating new postgis layer

[Andreas Neumann]

 In QGIS you cannot create a new Postgis layer without the help of a 
 Plugin. You can use the Postgis manager plugin or the new db manager 
 plugin. Both are python plugins.

 Alternatively you can create a new empty Postgis layer in pgAdmin3 (I 
 usually go this route for maximum flexibility) or with the text-based 
 psql client. See 
 http://postgis.refractions.net/documentation/manual-1.5/ch04.html#Create_Spatial_Table

 Or are you looking at ways to create a new Postgis-Layer with Python? 
 Maybe have a look at the source code of the above mentioned plugins?
