[Liblas-devel] .NET bindings and Beta3

[Steve Harwin]

Hi,

Thanks for your prompt reply Martin,  I will hold off a little while longer then and give a chance to complete your tests.  

My main first step will be to use the LASReader to read in a LAS file.  Writing can come later.

"WRT" means "with respect to".

I will watch this list to see when the .NET bindings are in a state that you feel is sufficient for me to get started on my integration.

Thanks
Steve

What WRT is????.

In my job i use visual studio 2008 pro, but like you see i add a visual 
2005 xpress solution to be more permisive with people.
Compile is very easy in this way.

Like you know monodevelop and visual studio now share the MSBuild system 
and therefore you can compile it in linux also.

You can compile with MSBuild by console.

To compile the dotnet bindings you don´t need liblas support but  you 
will need add to the same folder than dotnet bindings the native library 
if you want work....


I am trying use the same system than proj.NET,  sharpmap or  math.NET 
but we need add support to autotools and NMake.


In the source code you have a CAPI.cs file. In this file you need modify 
the line where you write the .DLL name for every liblas version.

Yesterday i was working in the bindings to complete mateus test with 
NUNIT. I don´t believe by now you can do many things because i am doing 
some changes in the API.
Liblas have much more work done than me because the C++ API have more time.
This week i hope have a nice screenshot with my complete NUNIT in green 
color ;-) .
