6.2.2. GDAL level one
=====================

Since Quantum GIS needs GDAL with GRASS support, we need to compile GDAL
from source - Paul Kelly's package doesn't include GRASS support in GDAL.
The idea is following:

1. compile GDAL without GRASS
2. compile GRASS
3. compile GDAL with GRASS

So, start with downloading GDAL sources:

http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/gdal141.zip

Unpack it to some directory, preferably c:\msys\local\src.

Start MSYS console, go to gdal-1.4.1 directory and run the commands below.
You can put them all to a script, e.g. build-gdal.sh and run them at once.
The recipe is taken from Paul Kelly's instructions - basically they
just make sure that the library will be created as DLL and the utility
programs will be dynamically linked to it...

install gdalinfo.exe gdal_translate.exe gdaladdo.exe gdalwarp.exe gdal_contour.exe gdaltindex.exe gdal_rasterize.exe /usr/local/bin



Finally, manually edit gdal-config in c:\msys\local\bin to replace the static library reference with -lgdal:


CONFIG_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lpng -lz -lgdal"

GDAL build procedure can be greatly simplified to use libtool with a libtool line patch:
configure gdal as below:
./configure --with-ngpython --with-xerces=/local/ --with-jasper=/local/ --with-grass=/local/grass-6.3.cvs/ --with-pg=/local/pgsql/bin/pg_config.exe

Then fix libtool with:
mv libtool libtool.orig
cat libtool.orig | sed 's/max_cmd_len=8192/max_cmd_len=32768/g' > libtool

Libtool on windows assumes a line length limit of 8192 for some reason and tries to page the linking and fails miserably. This is a work around.

Make and make install should be hassle free after this.

6.2.4. GDAL level two
=====================

At this stage, we'll use GDAL sources we've used before, only the compilation will be a bit different.

But first in order to be able to compile GDAL sources with current GRASS CVS, you need to patch them, here's what you need to change:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/attachment/ticket/1587/plugin_patch_grass63.diff
(you can patch it by hand or use patch.exe in c:\msys\bin)

Now in MSYS console go to the GDAL sources directory and run the same commands as in level one, only with these differences:

1. when running ./configure add this argument: --with-grass=/usr/local/grass-6.3.cvs
2. when calling g++ on line 5 (which creates libgdal.dll), add these arguments: -L/usr/local/grass-6.3.cvs/lib -lgrass_vect -lgrass_dig2 -lgrass_dgl -lgrass_rtree -lgrass_linkm -lgrass_dbmiclient -lgrass_dbmibase -lgrass_I -lgrass_gproj -lgrass_vask -lgrass_gmath -lgrass_gis -lgrass_datetime

Then again, edit gdal-config and change line with CONFIG_LIBS


CONFIG_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lpng -L/usr/local/grass-6.3.cvs/lib -lgrass_vect -lgrass_dig2 -lgrass_dgl -lgrass_rtree -lgrass_linkm -lgrass_dbmiclient -lgrass_dbmibase -lgrass_I -lgrass_gproj -lgrass_vask -lgrass_gmath -lgrass_gis -lgrass_datetime -lz -L/usr/local/lib -lgdal"


Now, GDAL should be able to work also with GRASS raster layers.
