Hi list I would like to know if there was a dedicated api method to create a new vector layer (and save it into a file) by copying a map canvas layer (which could be postgis, shapefile, etc.). I have read here http://www.qgis.org/pyqgis-cookbook/vector.html#writing-shapefiles how to write a new shapefile. But then I would need to "manually" copy each feature from the chosen layer to the new one.
I was thinking of a equivalent to the right-click "Save as" which brings an ui to choose the targer layer format, srid, etc., but I am trying to do it programatically. Is there a proper way to do it ? Thanks in advance Kimaidou
