Hi all, concerning the troubles with the DBF driver under Win32 that I wrote about earlier, I am trying to compile a current version of GRASS with MingW.
My problem is, that I cannot break the vicious GDAL-GRASS-GDAL cycle anymore. I was trying to follow the instructions in the gdal-grass plugin README: 1. GDAL 1.4.1 compiles fine without GRASS support. 2. However, the README is not clear on whether GRASS first needs to be compiled w/o GDAL support firdst, but I assume it has to, because it won't be able to find GDALOpen and the configure script aborts: checking whether to use GDAL... yes checking for gdal-config... /usr/local/bin/gdal-config checking for GDALOpen... no checking for GDALOpen... no configure: error: *** couldn't find GDAL 3. Fair enough, BUT: with the current CVS version, it seems impossible to compile GRASS without GDAL support, as compilation in lib/vector/Vlib aborts, even if I specify --without-gdal: field.c: In function `Vect_read_dblinks': field.c:388: error: `OGRDataSourceH' undeclared (first use in this function) field.c:388: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once field.c:388: error: for each function it appears in.) field.c:388: error: syntax error before "Ogr_ds" field.c:389: error: `OGRLayerH' undeclared (first use in this function) field.c:390: error: `OGRFeatureDefnH' undeclared (first use in this function) field.c:400: error: `Ogr_ds' undeclared (first use in this function) field.c:412: error: `Ogr_layer' undeclared (first use in this function) field.c:417: error: `Ogr_featuredefn' undeclared (first use in this function) A 'make distclean' with fresh configure run did not help. I don't know how many hours of time I have already lost with this tricky GDAL-GRASS interdependency thing in the past without ever figuring it out 100% Are you all sure that including GDAL in the GRASS distribution in the future is not an option?
