Hey, I checked gdal out from the svn repos and build it with: ./configure --libdir=/usr/lib --with-geos=yes make -j3 make install
Installed geos stuff: dpkg -l | grep geos ii libgeos-3.2.0 3.2.0-1 Geometry engine for Geographic Information Systems - C++ Library ii libgeos-c1 3.2.0-1 Geometry engine for Geographic Information Systems - C Library ii libgeos-dev 3.2.0-1 Geometry engine for GIS - Development files So from my pov it should be installed with geos support and IsValid() should not fail if the geometry is valid. For the crash of get_Area(), there is no error message or something like that. The program just shutsdown. -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/Reading-Geometry-from-text-file-tp5602472p5602924.html Sent from the GDAL - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
