It doesn't work !
Fabio,
I believe the problem is that the join operation is being evaluated by
OGR, and the OGR "pseudo-SQL" interpreter does not know how to evaluate
operations like "(b.cod_pro + b.id > + b.subid)". It only knows how to
do very simple key to key joins.
So, in this case the limited nature of OGR SQL joins is failing you.
This might work if you could create a regular column on your ODBC table
with the merged key. I will warn that OGR joins tend to be slow since
each joined record is fetched by a distinct SQL SELECT operation. So you
should only use it for small numbers of records.
Best regards,
