Wrong extension for gtiff image type in gdal msautotest

[nsavard]

The output image format in the map file of the following two tests is gtiff but the shp2img renames them to png.

bilinear_float.map rawmode_multiband.map

The relevant code is:

if len(runparms_list) == 0:

runparms_list.append( (mapfile_name[:-4] + '.png',

'[SHP2IMG] -m [MAPFILE] -o [RESULT]') )

The image type identification is confirmed by editing the output image in the result directory: "II" instead of "PNG".

Norm,

I'm not sure why you see this as a problem. At worst it is slightly confusing, but there is really no requirement that TIFF files have a .tif extension, or that .png files always actually be in png format.

I'm tentatively closing this as not needing any change, but do reopen it if you are sure there is an issue.

That's good with me.
