[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr -wrapdateline not working

[Flo Ledermann]

Hi all,

I want to use the -wrapdateline on a very simple shape file, containing
only a single polygon (as a start and test case)

However, I cannot get it working. Running the following on the attached
shapefile:

$ ogr2ogr -wrapdateline -overwrite polygon_spanning_dateline_wrapped.shp
polygon_spanning_dateline.shp


should - as far as I understand - result in a shapefile with the
original polygon clipped at -180°, and a second polygon (the clipped
part) to the far east ending at +180°.

Instead I get the identical, unclipped polygon as in the input file.
What am I doing wrong?

Best,

Flo
