my code<br>
field - fieldname is of string type and 0th field<br>
<br>
poFeature->SetField("fieldname","value");<br>
<br>
<br>
poFeature->GetFieldAsString(0);<br>
returns v instead of value;<br>
<br>
I dont know is it bug or my problem<br>
<br>
but I opened the shapefile in OpenJUMP and QGIS both shows field names as only<br>
v instead of value<br>
<br>
I am working with shapefiles<br>

Mohammed,<br>
<br>
What does the ogrinfo report on the field definitions look?<br>
<br>
ie.<br>
<br>
ogrinfo -so -al abc.shp<br>
<br>
I suspect the field "fieldname" was defined with a width of one. SetField()<br>
will automatically truncate the value in such a case.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
