[gdal-dev] Importing OSM: closed ways being skipped

[Richard Marsden]

Even,
Thanks - yes that makes sense now - the third looping until no
features are fetched from any of the layers, and so handling any order
of feature types as well as inter-dependencies. I guess I was
mis-interpreting that step.

Just tried ds.GetNextFeature() - worked first time!  Yes much simpler.
I'm currently only getting the feature and layer, but I see there is a
percent complete option - that might be useful for progress
indication. I'm currently providing features read and features
processed.

Thanks once again,

Richard
