<P>Hi,</P>
<P>I had received suggestions from Norman and Alessandro sometime back to use either minGW or cygwin for building GDAL on windows without installing MS VC++ (sorry for a delayed response, as I was up to something else..:-)..). I have installed minGW/minSYS on my windows machine. But the usual build instructions given on remotesensing.org/GDAL website for windows(or unix) do not work on the minSYS interface. Obviously I am doing something wrong here. Does anybody has links/clues on how to build GDAL using minGW/minSYS..?</P>
<P>I plan to use python 2.3 (for windows) to interact with GDAL.</P>
<P>Thankyou.</P>
