Josepo,

So you have data in an OGRDataSource from some format (not necessarily
S-57) and you want to save it out to S-57 format?  That is a very messy
and unsafe thing to do because OGR's S-57 writing support is very
dependent on having the exact S-57 data model already preprepared.

If you want to see how to use OGR to write data out to a format OGR
supports for creation, look through ogr2ogr.cpp, or better yet read through
the "Write to OGR" part of the API tutorial at:

  http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_apitut.html

Best regards,
