Thanks Glynn, excellent explanation!
I didn't know that such a backward check on library version could be
done... my ignorance :-)
So, you suggest to avoid gdal --with-grass. What if I need to access
grass datas from outside grass, like with gdal/ogr utilities?

I understand that everything that needs GRASS has to be recompiled if
this version changes so much to change its interface (QGis-GRASS

understand it if GRASS would need a newer version of GDAL... is this
the case?
You only need to re-compile GDAL itself if GDAL was built with GRASS
support (--with-grass).
In your original message, you wrote:
Even switching to develbrunch I receive the same error:
usr/local/lib/libgdal.so: undefined reference to `G_no_gisinit'
This indicates that your GDAL library was indeed built --with-grass. I
suggest building it without that option, and using the GDAL-GRASS
plugin instead.
If you build GDAL -with-grass, you will need to re-compile GDAL every
time that GRASS is updated from now on. The problem arises from
r32695, which makes G_gisinit() check that libgis was built with the
same version of gis.h as the caller.
The change adds G_gisinit() and G_no_gisinit() macros:
#define GIS_H_VERSION $Revision: 32726 $
#define G_gisinit(pgm) G__gisinit(GIS_H_VERSION, (pgm))
#define G_no_gisinit() G__no_gisinit(GIS_H_VERSION)
The value of GIS_H_VERSION is automatically updated to the SVN
revision whenever gis.h is updated.
The change also renames the functions to G__gisinit() and
G__no_gisinit() (which is why you get the undefined reference error
when using an old GDAL with a new libgis), and adds version checks:
int G__gisinit(const char *version, const char *pgm)
{
...
if (strcmp(version, GIS_H_VERSION) != 0)
G_fatal_error(_(Incompatible library version for module));
Any code which uses G_gisinit() or G_no_gisinit() passes the version
of gis.h with which it was compiled to the library functions, which
check that the same version of gis.h was used to compile the library.
The rationale is to avoid having to track down subtle errors caused by
version incompatibilities between libgis and any code which uses it.
Now, if there is an incompatibility, you get a very unsubtle error
telling you that there's an incompatibility.

Anyway if I stick to SVG format for saving any changes after importing the original PDF to Inkscape - no problems whatsover. That's interesting to know.

Also, bear in mind that the cairo driver can generate SVG directly, by using e.g. export GRASS_PNGFILE=map.svg.

I've checked the source code (https://svn.osgeo.org/grass/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_3/vector/v.distance/) and indeed it does not contain any source to compute meters, like for example in the source for version 6.4. So, am I correct, that the description is faulty for the 6.3 version, or am I missing something fundamental??

This time I'll follow your suggestion: I've just built gdal 1.5.2 (without grass) and grass (--with-gdal) , and now I will compile gdal-grass plugin 1.4.2. Last question (I'm sorry for my ignorance!): why grass configure asks for --with-gdal? Does this option prepare grass to use the gdal-grass plugin? GRASS needs GDAL. The --with-gdal switch allows the path to the gdal-config script to be passed as an argument, in case it isn't in the path, or in case you want to use a version other than the one which comes first in the path. You can't use --without-gdal or --with-gdal=no; GDAL is non-optional. However, GRASS doesn't require that GDAL is built with GRASS support, or the GDAL-GRASS plugin. -- Glynn Clements [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
RE: [GRASS-user] 6.3 v.distance description faulty / ll degrees notmeters
I can confirm 'dist' units are indeed given in decimal degrees in a Lat/Long location in 6.4. do you mean 6.3? No, I meant 6.4, but checking 6.3.1.svn, 'dist' units are decimal degrees as well. From r29568 [1] is distance (in LL locations) given in meters. Manual pages in 6.3 should be fixed. Sorry, I'm a little confused; from the changeset, it appears that v.distance was being corrected to able to report in meters, as lat and lon are not equally scaled. So it seems that a bug in v.distance still exists, then? Shouldn't r29568 have fixed this? ~ Eric. ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

Hi, 2008/8/14 Patton, Eric [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I can confirm 'dist' units are indeed given in decimal degrees in a Lat/Long location in 6.4. do you mean 6.3? No, I meant 6.4, but checking 6.3.1.svn, 'dist' units are decimal degrees as well. no, in 6.4 you get distance in meters not decimal degrees. Just computation is too slow. From r29568 [1] is distance (in LL locations) given in meters. Manual pages in 6.3 should be fixed. Sorry, I'm a little confused; from the changeset, it appears that v.distance was being corrected to able to report in meters, as lat and lon are not equally scaled. So it seems that a bug in v.distance still exists, then? Shouldn't r29568 have fixed this? Sorry, in which sense? In LL projection is used Vect_line_geodesic_length() to calculate distances.

Well, I was trying to get a bug free version... they were recommending 62 or 63 on cygwin. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/windows-grass62-downloading-error-tp18971467p18989077.html Sent from the Grass - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user

Re: [GRASS-user] Horizontal legend font size
Hamish wrote: As a general solution, I wonder if we should add a new enviro var GRASS_TEXT_SIZE, which R_text_size() would look for. If it was set it would override whatever was passed to that fn. (use for both width and height options which are usually the same) Glynn: And also GRASS_LINE_WIDTH. ok And maybe GRASS_FRAME=t,b,l,r. what about current frame name? will frames even survive in some form for GRASS 7? But not text rotation. what's different about that one? And then change all of these environment variables into GRASS variables, and provide a d.config program to set/get them. R_font(), R_text_size(), R_line_width() etc would still exist, but would only change the settings for the current process, not persistently. and thus knock away a few more global variables from libgis... I would wait to make them GRASS variables (and remove global) until grass7. We probably also want a global scale setting, which would affect various dimensions which are currently hard-coded, e.g. the size of axis ticks, etc. I'll have to think about that more. about d.legend's auto font auto-sizing based on legend length- I was thinking about changing the calculation to be non-linear so more even a size from both a 250 pixel wide legend and a full width legend. Which for normal use at current monitor size and resolution is great, but for things like oversampling 4x then cubic rescale in GIMP for pretty output or for the PS/SVG/etc drivers I wonder if it is better to keep it perfectly scaled to the frame size rather than expecting the view to always be targeted to the same number of pixels on the monitor. e.g. the GpsDrive software (www.gpsdrive.de) was written some years ago and uses a scale factor as a main part of the map tiles' georeferencing meta data to show how big 1:50,000 should be on the screen. Trouble is it was written when 15 800x600 SVGA was the norm and these days that calculation becomes an odd historical artifact. I'd like to avoid that.
