Export to Esri shape file (a test)
« on: October 09, 2025, 07:56:58 pm »
Hi,

Not a question but more of a mention. I know that a number of people don't like ai but i find it a nice toy to play with sometimes. I just gave a pdf with the technical description of an Esri shape file to chatgpt and asked for code that can export to a shape file. After 3 additional questions due to errors in the code, I now have a unit that creates a simple point and polygon shape file. I think that's pretty clever. There is also a disadvantage, I now have to see if I understand the code because I would never have managed to do this myself and certainly not in the approximately 30 minutes I have spent on it now. Perhaps I'll see if gml and Well-known text "geometry" can be converted to a shape file. Then a whole new world opens up for me. One for which I have used c# for a while in the past.
