Thread: Limited number of polygon function arguments

Hi,

the polygon function seems to be limited to
approximately 100 point arguments but some of my
polygons consist of more than 100 points. Are there
any hacks to get around of these limitations? Or do I
really have to install postGIS to deal with such
polygons?

(I am using PostgreSQL 8.1.9 on a Linux box)

Thanks

Surely not.  Please provide a concrete example of your problem.

You are right, Tom! Thank you.
I made a mistake (took not the right number of
parenthesis) - sorry.

Kind regards
