[Gdal-dev] ECW File open failed

[Ken Sewell]

Yes, "gdalinfo --formats" does list "ECW (rw)"

I went ahead and downloaded the 3.3 RC1 and tried it on my 32-bit and my 
64-bit.  gdalinfo on both machines show ECW in the formats list.  ECW on 
the 32-bit seems to work, same error on the 64-bit.  The examples 
included with ecwsdk3.3rc1 do run on the 64-bit system.  I'm trying to 
dig further.  Is there an easy way to build a debug version of gdal?  I 
haven't found a config option or a makefile target to do this yet.
