[gdal-dev] Possibility to use config options in VRT-files

[Pekka Sarkola]

Hi,

Ok, I understand and agree with this security issue.

However, I still have problems with the WFS service file.

This works perfectly:

    ogrinfo WFS:
https://geodata.tampere.fi/geoserver/wfs?typename=maankaytto:KAAVAYKSIKOT_ALUE_MVIEW
-al -so --config OGR_WFS_PAGING_ALLOWED OFF

Without  OGR_WFS_PAGING_ALLOWED, I got some HTTP 400 errors.

I create WFS Service file (tre_wfs.xml):

<OGRWFSDataSource>
  <URL>
https://geodata.tampere.fi/geoserver/wfs?typename=maankaytto:KAAVAYKSIKOT_ALUE_MVIEW
</URL>
  <PagingAllowed>OFF</PagingAllowed>
</OGRWFSDataSource>


When I run this service file with ogrinfo:

ogrinfo -ro tre_wfs.xml -al -so


I also got those HTTP 400 errors. However, if I add config parameter:

ogrinfo -ro tre_wfs.xml -al -so --config OGR_WFS_PAGING_ALLOWED OFF


It works, I'm confused.

Rgs,

Pekka
