[GRASS-dev] problem with parse_command python

[Luca Delucchi]

Hi all, I'm working for a new module using python but I have a strange
problem with parse_command and v.what. When I have a "good dictionary"
(setting parse = (grass.parse_key_val, { 'sep' : ':' })) I can see
only the attributes of one feature, with a "bad dictionary" I see all
the features but I can't work with them

Here the code

coor='647220.0,5084994.0'
map_tiles='test_tile'

## this return all the features but the dictionary is bad
>>> grass.parse_command('v.what',flags = 'a', map = map_tiles, east_north = coor)
 100%

'Type: Area': None, 'Database:
/grassdata/patUTM32/ortofoto_baldo/dbf/': None, 'cat : 4': None}

##this return only a features but the dictionary is good
>>> grass.parse_command('v.what',flags = 'a', map = map_tiles, east_north = coor, parse = (grass.parse_key_val, { 'sep' : ':' }))
 100%
{'': None, 'Map': ' test_tile ', 'Layer': ' 2', 'North': ' 5084994',
'Sq Miles': ' 0.8926', 'Database': '
/grassdata/patUTM32/ortofoto_baldo/dbf/', 'Type': ' Area', 'cat': '

' test_tile', 'East': ' 647220', 'Mapset': ' ortofoto_baldo', 'Key
column': ' cat'}

I also try to use flags = 'ag', but I can only have the second
solution (with one features)

Is there a problem in parse_command or I do something wrong?

thanks
