#1774 closed enhancement (fixed)

Confusing error message from ST_ChangeEdgeGeom (lwpoly_from_lwlines: shell must have at least 4 points)

Reported by: strk Owned by: strk
Priority: low Milestone: PostGIS 2.0.1
Component: topology Version: 2.0.x
Keywords: Cc:

Description

The error is confusing as I'm changing an edge geometry so don't expect LWPOLY to have anything to do with it.

I guess it's about the isomorphic movement detection.

Ok the error is raised when passing a single-point edge as a replacement for an existing edge. It's surely non-isomorphic (even if the edge was closed, a face would disappear), but could be reported in a nicer way :)
