Folks, In the interest of moving towards a GDAL/OGR 1.8 release I have done some work on RFC 31 - 64bit integers for OGR fields and FIDs. I've updated the RFC itself somewhat, and done a preliminary implementation of the RFC on my own system with a reasonable level of success.
I'm asking for additional comment on the RFC at: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc31_ogr_64 The implications and complications of this update are greater than I had first anticipated and even with what I've done so far I'm sure lots of additional glitches will come out of the wood work. Unfortunately, this is not funded work for me so it is hard to apply the level of effort that I would like to it. In short, I'm a bit nervous about implementing this RFC though now that I've sunk 2-3 days into the prototype work I'm hesitant to throw it away either. :-) Thoughts welcome.
