[gdal-dev] Creating a VRT dataset from overviews in C++

[Thomas Sevaldrud]

Hi Dmitry, and thanks for your answer!

I was actually looking at this patch earlier today, but I also wanted to
see if I could solve it without patching.

Will this patch be included in the official source?

Is it possible to do it the way I described in the previous mail?

Cheers,
Thomas
