Hi,

I am just wondering why the csv driver starts numbering at 1, rather than at 0, see e.g. the "First point" in the test.csv example at [1], which ends up as OGRFeature(test):1.

However, if I take the test.vrt/test.csv example and convert it to shapefile format, I end up with features 0, 1 and 2, see [2].

Is this how it should be?
