[gdal-dev] /vsizip/ requires zip extension?

[Martin Landa]

Hi,

recently I found out that /vsizip/ requires `zip` extension for the
input file. Eg.

ogrinfo /vsizip/test.zip -ro -q
1: test (3D Polygon)

while

cp test.zip test

ogrinfo /vsizip/test -ro -q
FAILURE:
Unable to open datasource `/vsizip/test' with the following drivers.

Why is the extension required? Thanks, Ma
