Hi

I'm using the GDAL api on LINUX to warp an image.  I open a GIF image, warp it 
and save it as a Geotiff virtual file.  Then I use CreateCopy to create a GIF 
file.  Everything works fine except occasionally it gives a segfault when I 
attempt to call GDALClose on the original dataset (opened with GDALOpen).  It 
happens about every 1 in six times I run it.

Has anybody else encountered this problem?
Is there a specific order in which the datasets should be closed?

Wendy,

No reason for this is immediately obvious, but if you are working on
Linux I would strongly encourage you to try your program under valgrind.
It is very good at identifying heap corruption, memory overwrite, post-free
memory use and similar problems.

Best regards,
