geos_contains(multipolygon, polygon) returns false when it should return true

[cdestigter]

In geodjango:

from django.contrib.gis import geos
g1 = geos.GEOSGeometry('MULTIPOLYGON(((0 0,0 10,10 10,10 0,0 0)))')
g2 = geos.GEOSGeometry('POLYGON((1 1,1 2,2 2,2 1,1 1))')

g1.contains(g2)
 => False

g2.within(g1)
 => False

Both of the above should return True. The following combinations work fine though: polygon.contains(polygon) multipolygon.contains(multipolygon) polygon.contains(multipolygon)

It's possible this has been fixed in a more recent version, though I couldn't find any existing tickets on it. Feel free to close if that's the case, stating when it was fixed.

I've added new unit tests for C API calls GEOSContains and GEOSWithin (see r2422). The tests include cases you've reported above as test case number 3 (see function void test<3>, in both files).

I've run the tests on Linux 64-bit, certainly, using GEOS from trunk and I couldn't reproduce your problem. IOW, all the tests cases pass as expected.

Any chance for some feedback or I can just close as worksforme?

I've run the GEOSContainsTest and GEOSWithinTest with current branch 3.0 and both pass:

I've attached patch test-contains-within-branch-3_0.patch which adds the two new tests to the branch 3.0, so others can run these tests on their own.

Due to lack of feedback from the ticket reporter, I'm closing it.
