[gdal-dev] question about --config cmd line option

[Victor Chernetsky]

Hello,

I am developing the AmigoCloud driver for GDAL, and I have a question about
'-config' command line option.

When I use a space it seems to work, but when I use '=', which seems like a
correct way of doing it, I get the token string with unwanted chars at the
end of it.

Here is how I call it with space. I get good result:
victor$ ./apps/ogrinfo --config AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY MY_TOKEN -al
"AmigoCloud:14200"
AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY: 'MY_TOKEN'

When I call it with '=' it's not good:
victor$ ./apps/ogrinfo --config AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY=MY_TOKEN -al
"AmigoCloud:14200"
AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY: 'MY_TOKEN=-al'

This is the code I use to get the token:

osAPIKey = CSLFetchNameValueDef(papszOpenOptionsIn, "AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY",
                                CPLGetConfigOption("AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY", ""));

printf("AMIGOCLOUD_API_KEY: '%s'\n", osAPIKey.c_str());

Am I doing something wrong in my code, or the space is the way to go?

Thanks,
*Victor Chernetsky*
