[gdal-dev] C#: Gdal on Win64

[Tomas R]

Is it possible to use gdal (C# wrapped)  from FWTools on a Win64 system 
(Vista 64)?

I have a plugin for SportTracks which gives other libraries access to 
GDAL. This is achieved by adding the path to the GDAL binaries to system 
PATH (for the running program).

On a Win64, i.e. Vista 64, the exception below is thrown when trying to 
read the version of the GDAL libraries. Is this normal behaviour or is 
there anything I can do to avoid this exception? I use GDAL 1.6.0dev 
from FWTools 2.1.0. All supportive libraries from FWTools are available 
to Gdal.
