I'm trying to setup a simple python script to query the WFS layers from a service. When using the special WFSLayerMetadata layer it seems to get screwed up. After the first comma within an abstract is found the field alignment becomes broken..
If I look here http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/wfs/ogrwfsdatasource.cpp#L1221 it seems the fields are being double quoted before being included into temp CSV data This is the place where the temp mem CSV layer is actually created: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/wfs/ogrwfsdatasource.cpp#L242 any ideas? See script below. ---script--- import ogr import gdal wfs_drv = ogr.GetDriverByName('WFS') gdal.SetConfigOption('OGR_WFS_LOAD_MULTIPLE_LAYER_DEFN', 'NO') # Note: if you want to use the URL below you need to sign up at # data.linz.govt.nz and create yourself an API key... ds = ogr.Open('WFS:http://wfs.data.linz.govt.nz/<my-private-key>/wfs') layermetadata = ds.GetLayerByName("WFSLayerMetadata") feat = layermetadata.GetNextFeature() while feat is not None: name = feat.GetFieldAsString('layer_name') title = feat.GetFieldAsString('title') print( "%s, %s" % (name, title) ) feat = layermetadata.GetNextFeature() feat = None exit(0) ---script--- This message contains information, which is confidential and may be subject to legal privilege.
