I've just recompiled gdal to include ecw support but I can't figure out

gdalinfo --formats now reports ecw support so it would seem that part of

We don't support everything that GDAL can do. In fact, we don't
support any raster formats via GDAL, and only a few of the vector
formats. Here's the current list out of xastir/src/gdal.c:
----------------------------------------------------
if (strstr(drv_name,"Shapefile")) {
#ifdef GDAL_SHAPEFILES
fprintf(stderr," shp ESRI Shapefile (via GDAL)\n");
#endif // GDAL_SHAPEFILES
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"NTF")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"SDTS")) {
fprintf(stderr," ddf Spatial Data Transfer Standard
(SDTS)\n");
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"TIGER")) {
fprintf(stderr," rt1 US Census Bureau TIGER/Line\n");
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"S57")) {
fprintf(stderr," s57 International Hydrographic Organization
(IHO) S-57\n");
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"MapInfo")) {
fprintf(stderr," tab MapInfo TAB\n");
fprintf(stderr," mid MapInfo MID\n");
fprintf(stderr," mif MapInfo MIF\n");
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"DGN")) {
fprintf(stderr," dgn MicroStation DGN\n");
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"VRT")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"AVCBin")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"REC")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"Memory")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"GML")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
else if (strstr(drv_name,"PostgreSQL")) {
// Not enabled in Xastir yet
}
----------------------------------------------------
Anything not listed isn't supported either.

Thanks Curt,
I wasn't aware that not all of GDAL was supported.
Looks like I'll stick to converting from ecw to jpg, which is no great
drama, the jpg's are working fine. Just thought I could avoid a step in
the process.
