Hi Alan, I tested this on Windows using gcc (under MinGW, not MSYS) and MSVC/C++ 10.0 (plain Windows). I did not test the install target though. It simply works, only the usual caveat: - The sample programs that come with shapelib require the shp.dll DLL and that is stored in a subdirectory. So to run them you have to set the path to include that directory or copy the DLL into the directory containing these programs.
The shapelib library seems to insist that there is an index file, .shx. Or that may just be the sample program. As the shape file (.shp) itself contains the coordinates and the index file is only a means to make look-ups faster, I was a bit surprised about that. Regards, Arjen On 2012-10-31 01:35, Alan W.
