Andre,

Yes:

#include "gdal.h"

int main()

{
	GDALDatasetH hDS;

	GDALAllRegister();

	hDS = GDALOpen( "abc.tif", GA_ReadOnly );
}

I really think you need to look at the tutorial material for GDAL
programming, the C API reference docs, gdal_translate.cpp, and gdal.h
before asking more general questions.

Best regards,
