[gdal-dev] Gdal 2.0 vs Gdal 1.x : Testing driver capabilities

[Julien Michel]

Hi all,

I am currently trying to make our software (Orfeo ToolBox) both 
compatible with Gdal 1.x (> 1.10) and gdal 2.x. I am almost done but I 
am having a hard time figuring out how to test capabilities on a (former 
OGR) driver.

Indeed, I can see in ogrsf_frmts.h that OGRSFDriver::TestCapability() is 
deprecated :

virtual int            TestCapability( const char *pszCap ) 
OGR_DEPRECATED("Use GDALDriver class instead") = 0;

However, I can not find such a service in GDALDriver class ... The only 
TestCapability I found is the one of GDALDataset.

I am specifically trying to test the ODrCDeleteDataSource capability on 
the driver, and I can not use the GDALDataset::TestCapability() for that 
(or at least it is not listed in supported capabilities in doxygen of 
this method [1]).

What am I missing here ?

Thanks a lot for your replies,

Regards,

Julien
