[gdal-dev] GDAL plugins and ArcGIS 9.2

[Lucena, Ivan]

John,

If you search the gdal-dev archives you will find what Peng Gao (ESRI's) 
has to say about that. He said that it is possible but unlikely to work 
due to customization on their end. What I suggest is that as ESRI 
business partner (EDN member or some other kind of arrangement) you 
might be able to get the gdal_1.lib; their additional or modified .h(s) 
and some epsg_*.inc(s) files and use VC71, MSVS 2003, to build a GDAL14 
plugin.

Regards,

Ivan
