[gdal-dev] Setting encoding using Python API

2015-01-30 Thread Roger André 
Hi All,

Curious how I go about specifying the equivalent of "-lco ENCODING=UTF-8"
when using the Python API to write out shapefiles with OGR?

Thanks,

Roger

Roger,

sure: taken from autotest suite:

shape_ds.CreateLayer('test_utf_cut', geom_type = ogr.wkbPoint, \
options = ['ENCODING=UTF-8'])

Awesome!  I hate to ask [another] dumb question, but how can I peruse that
autotest suite?  Under some sort of "test" dir in the install?
