[Gdal-dev] bug: ogr2ogr gml output

[Peter.Rushforth at statcan.ca]

Hi,

Two bugs, in fact:

i) When an input gml file contains a feature which contains
a property of the same name (although beginning with a lower-case letter
as per gml conventions), ogr2ogr gets confused.  It appears that
it is not case-sensitive.  When the output is also gml, spurious
gml:featureMembers appear, as the simple property element has been
mistaken for the complex feature element.  The issue is reflected
in the gfs file produced (samples attached).
eg. ogr2ogr -s_srs NAD83 -t_srs EPSG:3347 -f GML messed_up_features.gml gecu000e07g_e.gml  

ii)  When translating a shape file with accented characters into gml,
ogr2ogr outputs a file which it says is utf-8 encoded, but which won't
parse and which contains iso-8859-1 codepoints. (sample attached).
eg. ogr2ogr -f GML bad_encoding.gml shp/geco000e07a_f.shp

Hope these are clear!

Thanks for a great tool (that supports gml :-)),
