[gdal-dev] copy raster data in between file formats - Java

[Imran Rajjad]

Hi Florent,

I get your point , but the thing is how does one copy raster across
datasets when the required size value is more than  Integer`s maximum
value, It would make sense to fill memory raster data store with 1Gb
of data and dump it in the destination data store, but things break
down where you need to allocate an array for raster data. You can
either put the data in an array or bytebuffer and both require
capacity in terms of integer. It would be great if you can copy a
dataset at a given location and dimensions in another dataset with
same data type.

regards,
Imran
