#885: WinGrass: displaying r.external-linked raster data not working ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: hellik | Owner: [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: 6.4.0 Component: Display | Version: svn-releasebranch64 Resolution: | Keywords: r.external, WinGrass, osgeo4w Platform: MSWindows Vista | Cpu: x86-32 ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Comment (by glynn):
Replying to [comment:25 neteler]: > Sincerely, I am a bit confused here. According to the change history nothing but the decorated names being added and the CPL_STDCALL lines being removed has been changed: That's correct. The remaining differences between 6.x and 7.0 are due to 7.0 allowing new raster maps to be written via GDAL (r.external.out). Back-porting this feature would require back-porting the corresponding changes to the open_new and put_row code, which isn't feasible; the raster I/O code has diverged too much between 6.x and 7.0. Regarding my comments in comment:1 : > OTOH, it may be better to simply omit the r.external support from 6.5; it's very out of date (it was back-ported shortly after the first draft of the code was added to 7.0, and hasn't been updated since). It turns out that the read support hasn't actually changed significantly, and back-porting the write support isn't really an option. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/885#comment:26> GRASS GIS <http://grass.osgeo.org>
