Hi Frank,
Thanks for the help. It seems like you were correct. When I dereference
the MEM dataset the post-decrement reference count is not 0. My question
is: do I not close the MEM dataset since its reference count is not 0?
Best Regards,
Adeel Raza.

Hi,
I 'm using the GDALAutoCreateWarpedVRT() function to warp a MEM
GDALDataset. When I use the GDALClose() function to close the source
(MEM) dataset nothing happens. However, when I close the warped (VRT)
dataset using GDALClose() I get the following error:
"Unhandled exception at 0x01226b6e in Import Routine Test.exe:
0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x238dd369."
What could be going wrong?
Adeel,
I believe the problem is that the MEM dataset is getting destroyed twice.
GDALAutoCreateWarpedVRT() adds a reference to the passed in dataset to
indicate that something other than the main application code is also
using
that dataset. But the GDALClose() will close it regardless of additional
references.
The safer way is:
if( GDALDeferenceDataset( hMemDS ) == 0 )
GDALClose( hMemDS );
In your particular case you know the VRT will hold a reference, so it
would
be sufficient for you to drop your reference on the dataset using
GDALDereferenceDataset().
Best regards,
