Dear all
While developing MobilityDB we needed to extend the range type operators so
they cope with elements. In the same way that currently the range types
support both
- @> contains range/element
- <@ element/range is contained by
we extended the left (<<), overleft (&<), right (>>), and overright (&>)
operators so they can cope with both elements and ranges at the left- or
right-hand side. These can be seen in github
https://github.com/ULB-CoDE-WIT/MobilityDB/blob/master/src/rangetypes_ext.c
If you think that these extensions could be useful for the community at
large, I can prepare a PR. Please let me know.
