python OGR bindings - crash on ExportToKML()

[darkblueb]

create a geometry without a name attribute. geom.ExportToKML() will throw an exception

geom_wkt = 'MULTIPOLYGON( ((0 0,1 1,1 0,0 0)),((0 0,10 0, 10 10, 0 10),(1 1,1 2,2 2,2 1)) )'
geom = ogr.CreateGeometryFromWkt( geom_wkt )
geom.ExportToKml()

note that geom.ExportToJson(), others work fine

Did you use ExportToKml() ? If so, the exception is expected due to a case issue (Kml vs KML). The following works :

>>> geom.ExportToKML()
'<MultiGeometry><Polygon><outerBoundaryIs><LinearRing><coordinates>0,0 1,1 1,0 0
,0</coordinates></LinearRing></outerBoundaryIs></Polygon><Polygon><outerBoundary
Is><LinearRing><coordinates>0,0 10,0 10,10 0,10</coordinates></LinearRing></oute
rBoundaryIs><innerBoundaryIs><LinearRing><coordinates>1,1 1,2 2,2 2,1</coordinat
es></LinearRing></innerBoundaryIs></Polygon></MultiGeometry>'

ok, yes I did.. The case is a little confusing, that ExportToGML() and ExportToKML() are upper case, and ExportToJson() is mixed, but I see what you mean now..
