[gdal-dev] Mapinfo TAB Files and DateTime

[Dale Harris]

I am using GDAL 1.6 Beta with VB.NET (through ogr_csharp) to read a TAB
file with a Date or a Date Time field and I can't use the following to
get the date values (they are all 0):

 

.GetFeature(x).GetFieldAsDateTime(33, myyear, mymonth, myday, myhour,
mymin, mysec, mytz)

 

However if I use:

 

.GetFeature(x).GetFieldAsString(33)

 

I get "2008102600000".

 

Also if I try to create a new file with a datetime field it builds ok
but the field has no values assigned to it.

 

Is this due to the csharp wrapper not yet supporting datetime fields in
Mapinfo?

 

Cheers,
