Hi Guglielmo
I found the QGIS dxf2shp plugin works with Dassault's DraftSight version of
dxf.
One needs to run an unexploded version of dxf - once for polyline and again
for polygon.
For text and accompanying points an exploded version of the dxf file needs
to be selected.
I then use FWTools to import the shapefiles into Postgis.
QGIS is written in VC++ of which I am not acquainted. Perhaps this will
help you.
It would be of help to have a standalone version that imports all of the dxf
information directly into Postgis with one click.

Hi Bob,
sorry for delay in answering.
Yes, Dxf2PostGis manage blocks like points and I don't plan (for the
moment) to develop extra code to do it in different way.
I'm not expert user of Org2org (I remember also a different name
"ogr2ogr") and I can't help you, sorry.
I can suggest you to explode blocks before use Dxf2PostGIS, if this is
compatible with your requirements.
In any case, good luck!
Please, tell me if you find a workaround to the trouble.

Hi Guglielmo
I tried it a couple of weeks ago but it didn't import the block geometries
nor the block text. It worked well with the non-block text and geometries.
I've managed to, with Org2org, import the whole DXF file but for some
reason
it appears to turn the block text into linestrings.

Have you try to use "dxf2postgis"?
It's a tool for Windows environment that convert DXF files (R11 and
R12 version) in SQL scripts for PostgreSQL+PostGIS.
In detail, text are converted in points with special attibutes (text,
size, rotation, font, etc.) that you can use to replay the AutoCad
graphic aspect in a desktop GIS like QGis.

I have imported a dxf file into Postgis using the following command
line -
set DXF_INLINE_BLOCKS=FALSE&set DXF_MERGE_BLOCK_GEOMETRIES=FALSE&set
PGCLIENTENCODING=LATIN1&&ogr2ogr -f "PostgreSQL" PG:"host=localhost
user=postgres dbname=dbname password=pass" W_Works.dxf -nln Import_PID
-overwrite –skipfailures
All geometries are intact.
However, the text is part of the Linestring layer and not in the text
column
of the Postgresql table.
Is this to be expected?
Is there some way of screening out the text as text and point geometry?
Bob
