<LI><SPAN class=165583415-25062008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to use
the GDAL WMS driver. But without doing a GetCapabilities request out of the
box and with the need of creating a special XML file for each server, the
driver seems to be a little bit useless to me (from an end user's point
of view). Is there somewhere the GetCapabilities-script mentioned here: <A
href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SoCWMSDriver">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SoCWMSDriver</A>?
Where do I get the needed <SizeX> and <SizeY> values from? The
GetCapabilities request of a WMS does not return these
values...<BR></FONT></SPAN></LI>
<LI><SPAN class=165583415-25062008><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have tried to use
the first WMS-XML-file from here: <A
href="http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms.html">http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms.html</A>,
to access a WMS server; however the GDALOpen()-call fails (returns NULL). The
WMS driver is available (verified with "gdalinfo --formats"). Are there any
requirements to the filename used for the XML filename (I used
"D:\wms-test.xml" and inside of my C++-code
"D:\\wms-test.xml")?</FONT></SPAN></LI></OL>
