WL#9449: Restrict range of geographic coordinates in import functions
Affects: Server-8.0
—
Status: Complete
Geographic coordinates are longitudes and latitudes, which have known bounds. This WL restricts input to a valid range.
In all geometry import functions, raise an error if a geographic SRS is used and the coordinates are outside the legal range of (-180, 180] for longitude and [-90,90] for latitude.
This applies to functions:
- ST_GEOMCOLLFROMTEXT
- ST_GEOMCOLLFROMTXT
- ST_GEOMCOLLFROMWKB
- ST_GEOMETRYCOLLECTIONFROMTEXT
- ST_GEOMETRYCOLLECTIONFROMWKB
- ST_GEOMETRYFROMTEXT
- ST_GEOMETRYFROMWKB
- ST_GEOMFROMTEXT
- ST_GEOMFROMWKB
- ST_LINEFROMTEXT
- ST_LINEFROMWKB
- ST_LINESTRINGFROMTEXT
- ST_LINESTRINGFROMWKB
- ST_MLINEFROMTEXT
- ST_MLINEFROMWKB
- ST_MPOINTFROMTEXT
- ST_MPOINTFROMWKB
- ST_MPOLYFROMTEXT
- ST_MPOLYFROMWKB
- ST_MULTILINESTRINGFROMTEXT
- ST_MULTILINESTRINGFROMWKB
- ST_MULTIPOINTFROMTEXT
- ST_MULTIPOINTFROMWKB
- ST_MULTIPOLYGONFROMTEXT
- ST_MULTIPOLYGONFROMWKB
- ST_POINTFROMTEXT
- ST_POINTFROMWKB
- ST_POLYFROMTEXT
- ST_POLYFROMWKB
- ST_POLYGONFROMTEXT
- ST_POLYGONFROMWKB
There are a few import functions that are not affected by this WL:
- ST_GEOMFROMGEOJSON (restriction is already implemented)
- ST_LATFROMGEOHASH (can't represent out-of-range values)
- ST_LONGFROMGEOHASH (can't represent out-of-range values)
- ST_POINTFROMGEOHASH (can't represent out-of-range values)
- F-1
- If any parameter is a geometry in a geographic SRS and a longitude value is not in the range (-180,180] (in degrees -- other limits in other units), the functions MUST raise ER_LONGITUDE_OUT_OF_RANGE.(*)
- F-2
- If any parameter is a geometry in a geographic SRS and a latitude value is not in the range [-90,90] (in degrees -- other limits in other units), the functions MUST raise ER_LATITUDE_OUT_OF_RANGE.(*)
(*) The exact limits will deviate slightly because of floating point arithmetics.

- No new files.

- No new syntax.
- I-3
- No new commands.
- I-4

- I-5
- The semantics of interface SQL01 are changed: The geometry import functions will raise an error if one or more coordinate values are out of range.
- I-6
- No new errors or warnings.
