[gdal-dev] Is it possible to "hide" some ERROR messages?

[Daniele Romagnoli]

Hi Tom, Vincent,
I'm using GDAL via Java by means of the SWIG bindings.
The error message automatically appears on the console when I call the
gdal.Open(name, accessType) method and GDAL is unable to open the dataset.
Anyway, I have just taken a look on the thread suggested by Vincent and now
I can quiet the errors. Thank you.

Regards,
Daniele
