It was a choice to drop support for binary compatibility of the C++ library. This means that with the new layout any client dynamically linked against the C++ library of GEOS won't automatically be linked against C++ lib of new GEOS release. It is a choice to discourage use of a yet-to-be-cleanly-defined API (the C++ one) and incourage use of the C API, which is aimed at keeping binary compatibility between GEOS releases. --strk; _______________________________________________ geos-devel mailing list geos-devel@geos.refractions.net http://geos.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/geos-devel
