[gdal-dev] Question about MEM raster

[Jorge Arévalo]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a raster in memory
(http://www.gdal.org/frmt_mem.html) when not all the bands have the
same pixel datatype? I suppose it's not a common situation, but if
happens, should I avoid the DATATYPE option and let GDAL manage this
issue? In other way, is the DATATYPE option an "information-only"
option?

Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Jorge
