Re: [gdal-dev] GDAL/OGR C# wrapper and UTF8

2013-04-03 Thread rburhum
Hello Tamas and Dennis, This is my personal opinion and there may tons of people that disagree, but I think it is more sane to always assume UTF8 encoding. There is functionality among the various drivers to accept/return strings in different encodings (through the CPL_Recode mechanism) but they

Hello Tamas and Dennis, Indeed the C# bindings to not handle UTF8 characters correctly. I submitted a bug report about it a couple of months ago with a reproducible case. http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4971 For the case that I submitted, the values for the fields in C-API GDAL are coming out

Hello quiztli, I have it working on Windows and OSX. I believe EvenR did the port for Linux. If I had to do a wild guess, I would say that the dynamic library for the esri implementation is not being found at run-time. Check your LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux) / DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH (OSX) to make sure

Re: [gdal-dev] FileGDB -preserve_fid

2012-12-13 Thread rburhum
Although FileGDB does have programmatic ways to preserve the FID, these are not exposed through the FileGDB API yet. What people normally do in these cases is to copy the fid to the target dataset as a non-primary key value. I guess we could add something along these lines as an enhancement

Re: [gdal-dev] Which version number for the next GDAL release : 1.10 or 2.0 ?

2012-11-09 Thread rburhum
Perhaps calling it 2.0 is not a bad thing and it sounds of less of a hassle. Breaking the ABI (by rushing major API changes) just so that the semantics of what 2.0 means, seems inappropriate. If/when the unification starts, we could bump it to 3.0, 4.0 or any other number. There are quite a few of

Re: [gdal-dev] Homebrew Package Manager and libKML dependency on libkml 1.3

Hi Frank, Getting an official release of libKML 1.3 would be great. By the way, there is a build issue of libKML with autoconf 1.12. I submitted a bug and a simple fix with details http://code.google.com/p/libkml/issues/detail?id=186sort=-id . If you could commit that, that would be great,
