Hi,
Detection of gdal version in python using the following method fails
when using gdal-1.10 .
>>> print gdal.VersionInfo("RELEASE_NAME")
1.10dev
>>> print( gdal.VersionInfo("RELEASE_NAME") >= "1.7" )
False
>>> print( gdal.VersionInfo("RELEASE_NAME") >= "1.10" )
True
What is the recommended way to test for previous versions of gdal that
is backwards compatible and that support 1.10?
The following seems to work using VERSION_NUM:
in 1.10dev:
>>> gdal.VersionInfo("VERSION_NUM")
'1100000'
>>> print( int(gdal.VersionInfo("VERSION_NUM")) >= 1900 )
True
>>> print( int(gdal.VersionInfo("VERSION_NUM")) >= 1100000 )
True
and in 1.9.2:
>>> print( int(gdal.VersionInfo("VERSION_NUM")) >= 1900 )
True
>>> print( int(gdal.VersionInfo("VERSION_NUM")) >= 1100000 )
False
thanks,
Etienne
