[gdal-dev] Re: SDE connection string problem with 1.6.1?

[bartvde at osgis.nl]

Okay, at least there is a workaround for this issue, by opening the
dataset in read-only mode and specifying the version (which causes the
else loop not to be reached):

[bart at hades nappub_svn]$ ogrinfo -ro
SDE:geodatabase.ad.rws.nl,5151,PGPR,RWS_LEZEN,RWS_LEZEN,WEGEN.WEGEN_NWB_LIGHT,SDE.DEFAULT
INFO: Open of
`SDE:geodatabase.ad.rws.nl,5151,PGPR,RWS_LEZEN,RWS_LEZEN,WEGEN.WEGEN_NWB_LIGHT,SDE.DEFAULT'
      using driver `SDE' successful.
1: WEGEN.WEGEN_NWB_LIGHT


Best regards,
Bart
