[gdal-dev] Writing Coded Domain Values from GDAL

I just figured out the issue, I tried to see that the C.D.V are created on
the layer, but for XML with C.D.Vs the layer returned was NULL.
However it worked for XML without C.D.V values. Filegeodb API says that
call for geodatabase->createTable will ignore C.D.Vs

Thanks
