[Gdal-dev] VSI file open/close issue

When using VSI* or VSI*L functions, it seems impossible to mix both, which
means opening a file using VSIFOpen then closing it with VSIFCloseL.
Hence my question : how can I tell them apart ? In a new GDAL driver where I
need to open lots of datasets, I'd like to re-use the opened file descriptor
included in GDALOpenInfo to avoid unnecessary IO.
But that file descriptor can be opened by either of VSIFOpen or VSIFOpenL
(when VSIFOpen fails) - by the way it's always closed using VSIFClose
Should I use a RTTI function to guess the actual type?
Thanks,
Frederic Claudel

Thanks Frank,
I had a quick look at getting the IRC client to go, but our work proxy can
be a bit difficult to get around.
I will have a look at getting access via SSH, again this is usually not
permitted because of security concerns. Perhaps if I could give them a
specific client address, and then decide on a time window to allow you
"through" our firewall we could have more success.
I suspect that we have everything needed to do a successful build, but I am
not entirely sure of what order things should be in. The 32 vs 64 bit build
is puzzling me as to which PATH and LD_LIBRARY settings are needed plus
which system wide settings should apply.
I've had success in the past in building ECW as a separate (standalone)
entity, but not in getting it to link-in with GDAL. I've also managed to get
an older version of GDAL (v1.2) working. Bugger me if I can remember how I
did it now !
I'll contact our network people and see if I can get access via SSH granted.
Regards,
Shaun
