Description
After the changes done in http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/11529 / http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/1635 , any CE_Failure error emitted by CPLError() in the Open() method of GDAL and OGR drivers, and not cleared, will cause the swig bindings to return a null dataset, even if the driver returned a valid one.
Sometimes those errors are not critical, and users regularly complain (last occurrence is http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2011-November/030960.html ) that they can open them successfully with C/C++ API, but not from Java/Python/etc, so I'd suggest the following patch that adds a bIgnoreErrors option, that if turned on will reset the error flag in the case discussed here. By default, the new option is not turned on.
