[gdal-dev] Re: Editing attributes with ogr causing corrupt shapefile

[Tom Jeffery]

Chaitanya,

The updated file is read properly with ogrinfo.  The only difference between
ogrinfo -al between the two, besides the new field that was created, is the
extent, which looks like this:

Original file:
Extent: (1528126.013001, 45899.818172) - (1542444.478012, 61468.662925)

Updated file:

That...is a really large negative number!  Any idea why it might be getting
blown up?
