#1209 closed defect

incorrect MapInfo style string causes system exception — at Version 1

Description (last modified by Jukka Rahkonen)

Upon creating a new feature on a MapInfo layer, if the style string in the
feature is invalid, the MapInfo driver will throw an exception instead of
reporting an error.

For example, the following string is only invalid by an extra space character
after the comma:

"SYMBOL(c:#000000, id:\"ogr-sym-1\")"

and will cause a crash on the OGR_L_CreateFeature() call.

Description: modified (diff)

I can reproduce the error with attached OpenJUMP file which has a faulty style string

SIMBOL(c:#000000, id:\"ogr-sym-1\")

System tolerates extra spaces nowadays so I had to introduce a bigger error.

Command "ogr2ogr -f "mapinfo file" ogrstyle.mif ogr_style_error.jml" makes ogr2ogr.exe to crash on Windows 7 without any error messages.

Tested with GDAL 2.0-dev
