[Gdal-dev] gdaltindex on numerous files

[Kralidis,Tom [Burlington]]

Hi,
 
I'm trying to create a MapServer tileindex via gdaltindex, where I would like to store the absolute paths to each raster image in the output tileindex.
 
Trying this gives me the following error:
 
$ gdaltindex srtm-index2 $PWD/*.tif
-bash: /usr/local/bin/gdaltindex: Argument list too long
 
Does gdaltindex take a filelist as an argument?  Trying:
 
 
$ gdaltindex srtm-index2 < some_file
$ gdaltindex srtm-index2 some_file
 
...didn't work.
 
Any advice would be much appreciated.
 
Thanks
 
..Tom
