After a bit more digging I am not sure I asked the right question.
What I want to do is read feature information from a shapefile or
other data source and get a string that contains the feature
information encoded in KML that I can pass directly into Google
Earth. I know I can do this operation is I open the shapefile write
the KML data to disk then open the kml file up with fopen then read it
into memory and send it t Google Earth but I would like to save the
disk write the read operation.
Any thoughts?
Bruce,
I've skimmed the KML driver and there is no sign that it uses the VSI*L
API for file access, so I don't see any way you can write results to a
memory buffer without substantial recoding in the kml driver.
Looks like a candidate for proposal for the GSoC 2009
