[gdal-dev] GDAL/ArcObjects based app crashes with newer GDAL versions (was How to delete shapefile)

[Clay, Bruce]

Mateusz:

Yes that is the case.  The same application works fine with GDAL 1.5.4
but not with any newer version.

I am beginning to suspect SDE / GDAL interaction.  I think SDE uses GDAL
1.4.  My GDAL library is built with SDE support and I am linking in
ArcObjects libraries to my application.  I am linking to the GDAL static
library when the crash occurs.  If I try to link to the gdal_i.lib then
the program does not crash but it does not let me step into any of the
methods even though it is a debug library and no GDAL functions work.

You mentioned "configuration".  Does GDAL 1.6 and new code require some
configuration on Windows XP that was not required before?

Bruce,

Are you saying that you are unable to run this simple program
successfully?

#include "ogrsf_frmts.h"
int main()
{
     OGRRegisterAll();
}

If you indeed can not run it, it probably means your GDAL installation
is not configured properly or broken.
