[gdal-dev] Building multiple versions of GDAL from the same tree...

[Carl Godkin]

Hi,

With a shiny new version of GDAL now available (thanks!), I'm wondering
about a problem with the builds that I always have but have never asked
about before.

Since I need to build several Linux variants of various third party
libraries, I can usually persuade "configure" and make to work from a
sub-directory like this:

cd library && mkdir version1 && cd version1
../configure options...
make

followed by

cd library && mkdir version2 && cd version2
../configure options...
make

and

cd library && mkdir version3 && cd version3
../configure options...
make

so that I end up with three completely independent builds of the library in
the sub-directories.

I've never been able to get this sort of build to work with GDAL however.
I know configure has a million options so I may have overlooked a trick for
this.

Has anyone else been successful trying this with GDAL?

Thanks,

carl
