Tamas, thanks for the SQL Server driver. I also did some development on a SQL
Server driver for the FalconView software, using OGR's existing MySQL driver as
a reference. One issue I saw was with setting a default FID value, when no FID
column is present. In OGRMSSQLSpatialLayer::GetNextRawFeature(), you set the
value to an incrementing counter:
if( pszFIDColumn != NULL && poStmt->GetColId(pszFIDColumn) > -1 )
poFeature->SetFID(
atoi(poStmt->GetColData(poStmt->GetColId(pszFIDColumn))) );
else
poFeature->SetFID( iNextShapeId );
Maybe you addressed this elsewhere in your code, but it seems like this causes
problems if you expect the FID value to always be preserved for any given
feature. The FID value for a feature will be different before & after a filter
is applied to the data set, since new OGRFeature objects are created each time.
Is my understanding of the situation and the driver code correct? If so,
should the FID value stay constant?
Thanks!
