[Gdal-dev] gdal_translate

[Ed McNierney]

Ayman -

If you followed my suggestions you would find the answer to those
questions.

If you need to create a Microsoft Visual Studio project, you will need
to do that yourself as it's not part of the GDAL distribution.

If you read the makefile.vc file in the apps directory, where
gdal_translate lives, you'll find exactly the header files and libraries
it uses.  You'll also need to look at the nmake.opt options file in the
root GDAL directory; the answer to your question depends (slightly) on
whether you intend to use GDAL as a DLL or statically linked.

Sir,
what I ask for is only the following:

I want to be able to build and execute gdal_translate
as a standalone project. I am using Microsoft Visual
Studio 6.0 IDE. What header files do I have to put in
the application directory and what library files do I
need to put in my workspace, and what DLLs do I have
to put in the same path of the EXE file so that the
application can survive alone.
