Hey guys. Definitely ok with moving the jni based module back to unsupported. As you know I havent been much of a maintainer for quite some time now so I'm fine with whatever you guys think best. On Sat, Apr 21, 2018, 2:19 AM Andrea Aime wrote: > On Sat, Apr 21, 2018 at 12:08 AM, Ben Caradoc-Dav

Thanks for clarifying - I suppose it would be possible to segment the level of support to levels: Level 1 would be is reading and writing the geometry, crs and tabular data, level 2 would be the styling - I'm currently examining the MITAB source to see how big a task this should be. -Jesper >

As I recall just importing the basic geometries from a MapInfo file wasn't too hard but there is a whole bunch of styling and other junk in there too that people wanted to read in. Plus whoever was doing it would need a MapInfo licence to generate/check input files. So not impossible but not chea

Hi list Ugh - removing OGR support will make it impossible for Java tools to access MapInfo files. We're using BridJ for now, as it's easier to get the GDAL bits without the corresponding JNI shared object. Is there anything I could do to help? How big a job is building MapInfo support in Java

Hi Jesper, you can take over maintainership of the BridJ module and fix the build, or sponsor someone to do it for you. Writing mapinfo support in java would be best of course, but also believe it's a sizable effort (take a look at the OGR mapinfo source code, something similar would have to be bu

Hi all, any feedback? If not, I plan to remove the module sometimes soon. (mind, the JNI module will be broken just the same at runtime, but won't fail the build unless the JNI native lib is around, which is normally not) Cheers Andrea On Wed, Apr 4, 2018 at 2:07 PM, Andrea Aime wrote: > Hi Ben

Hi Ben, I've already inquired to Even about those failures, looks like signature of a few methods changes in OGR 1.11. Both JNI and BridJ bindings fail, the difference is that BridJ does not need the "bridge" JNI native library so it runs most of the time, while the JNI one skip the tests. Now, wi
