Folks, after much hassles and pain it came down to version.
I was running OGR/GDAL version 1.5: after I upgraded to 1.6.2 the styling started to work. I wish to publicly thank Dale Harris for having spent quite a bit of time with me nutting this one out. regards Simon On Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:16:14 +1000, Simon Greener <[email protected]> wrote:
Dale, Thanks for taking the time to respond.Try this symbol definition. I vaguely remember having this issue and I used this symbol to fix it. 'SYMBOL(a:0,c:#ff0000,s:6pt,id:"mapinfo-sym-34.ogr-sym-4")' so create or replace view vw_australian_cities as select rownum as rid, a.abbr as abbreviation, a.city_name, a.geom.Get_WKB() as geom, CAST('SYMBOL(a:0,c:#ff0000,s:6pt,id:"mapinfo-sym-34.ogr-sym-4")' as varchar2(255)) as OGR_STYLE from australian_cities a;I tried this but it didn't work. I also tried putting a comma ',' instead of a full stop '.' between the mapinfo-sym34 and ogr-sym-4 but that didn't work either. If you can remember more clearly what you did to get it work I would appreciate it. regards SImon
