[mapserver-users] kml superoverlays

[Páll Péter Hunor]

Hi,

I've debugged the kml driver, and I've managed to solve my problem 
making some minor changes in kmlsuperoverlaydataset.cpp.
See the ticket, and the attached source code: 
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/6343
Use it up if you think so.

Regards,
Hunor
