[Gdal-dev] SetFeature crashing browser when used with OGR_L_GetFeature

[Daniel Morissette]

Hi Ben,

There may be a bug in the implementation of the PHP_OGR wrapper that 
frees the feature or does something illegal with it internally and that 
causes the crash.

Can you please post a bug with a complete test case (complete script and 
test dataset) in the GDAL bugzilla and make sure it is assigned to me? 
I'm not sure when we'll be able to look into it due to other priorities, 
but with a complete test case that will be easier.

Daniel
