Hi,<br>I'm still with the problem of how to get a gdal version from a python API inside QGIS.<br>Now i've looked at gdal_tools code and it calls the module gdal and checks it's version. Seems odd to know that the module and qgis doesn't use the same versions on a OSGeo4W installation.<br>
On my laptop qgis reports (on the about screen) gdal 1.5.3 and python-gdal reports 1.7.3.<br>That sounds ok as I've really installed gdal 1.7 by hand, but I'm still on the same problem.<br>Is there any way to get to know what kind of files does qgis open as raster? On gdal it would be getDriverByName() and check if it's ok but how can I access this throught the qgis API to use the exactly same version as the DataProvider is using?<br>
Thanks for any tips.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Mauricio de Paulo<br>Engenheiro Cartografo<br><a href="http://mapeandoobrasil.blogspot.com" target="_blank">MapeandoOBrasil</a><br><br>
