[gdal-dev] How to supress std io of gdal?

[Ari Jolma]

Sam,

There is CPLSetErrorHandler, which you can use to set your own error 
handler function:

http://www.gdal.org/ogr/cpl__error_8h.html#74d0e649d58180e621540bf73b58e4a2

This is used for example by the HL bindings to redirect warnings and 
errors to respective systems of the HLs. See:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/swig/include/cpl_exceptions.i

Regards,

Ari
