In spite of that using the -S option still gives Multipoint First, shouldn't -S option in this case create POINT of all geometries? Second, what if it would have been one MULTIPOINT geometry in the shape, what to do? I thought there where some option to force all geometries to multi instead. I think SPIT does (and also not sets any constraint) And -S option seems to be missing in documentation, and in the help in shap2pgsql -w option seems to be missing instead. /Nicklas" defect closed medium PostGIS 1.5.3 postgis 1.5.X fixed history
