Alisson,

You can refer to the method's documentation here:
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/classOGRGeometry.html#a674319670e735bf6d4049300096157ec

The mechanism of this operation was already explained Peter Halls in this
mailing list[1]. GEOS does a good job identifying line strings touching at
end points and then combining them to make rings and then polygons.

However, it's your job to ensure that all the line strings passed to the
method are part of a single polygon.
