Handling multiple geometry columns

Hi,

I would like to use the FeatureReader to read the data from the PostgreSQL (PostGIS) and save it to the GML (3.2.1), Esri Shapefile and Mapinfo TAB.

The source table contains multiple geometry columns.

Do those formats and/or writers support multiple geometries.

Best regards,

 

Damian

Shape and TAB don't support multiple geometries, GML does.

Thank you for you answer.

Is it possible to write GML with multiple geometries with PostGIS FeatureReader and GML321 FeatureWriter? Looks like the first column is used as an "object geometry" and other columns are being skipped in the schema feature.
