[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr.java s57 conversion

[Robert Naugle]

If I use the GDAL 1.7.3 version of ogr2ogr from the command line, like:
*    ogr2ogr -skipfailures /path/to/dest /path/to/source*
it works great. I get a directory 'dest' full of shapefiles, one for each
layer in the source S-57 chart file. (in my case, 21 different layers)

I am trying to use ogr2ogr.java to do the same thing, like:
*    String[] args = new String[3];*
*    args[0] = "-skipfailures";*
*    args[2] = "/path/to/dest";*
*    args[3] = "/path/to/source";*
*    ogr2ogr.main(args);*
but I only get three shapefiles in my destination directory, Area, Point,
and Line. Adding a printout to the ogr2ogr.java code reveals that
<datasource>.GetLayerCount() returns 5.

Furthermore, if I try to convert only one layer of the chart on the command
line, as in:
    *ogr2ogr -skipfailures /path/to/dest /path/to/source DEPCNT*
it results in one shapefile in the destination directory. The java version
complains:
    *String[] args = new String[4];*
*    args[0] = "-skipfailures";*
*    args[2] = "/path/to/dest";*
*    args[3] = "/path/to/source";*
*    args[4] = "DEPCNT";*
*    ogr2ogr.main(args);*
*    ...*
*    FAILURE: Couldn't fetch advertised layer DEPCNT!*
*
*
Can anyone shed some light on this behavior? Is my ogr2ogr.java, which was
compiled using GDAL 1.8.0, somehow different? Is this expected behavior?
Should I change my configuration options before building?

Thanks for any and all information...
