Yes, ogr-sysntax must be used.



# -- Spatialite provider

# dbname='/tmp/x.sqlite' table="t" (geometry) sql='


would need to call 'GetLayerByName'

Here again there is a problem between gdal 1.* and gdal 2.*

Where there is a table with more than 1 geometry the syntax
 'tablename(fieldname)' can be used

In gdal 2.* that syntax can also be used with a table with only 1 geometry
- but not in gdal 1.*: there only the tablename can be used

sLayername="t(geometry)"; // ok for gdal 2.* or gdal 1.* with > 1 geometry
sLayername="t"; // ok for gdal 2.* or gdal 1.* with 1 geometry

ogrLayer = OGR_DS_GetLayerByName( ogrDataSource, TO8( sLayerName ) );

This should work for both PostgreSQL and spatialite based on your samples.
