[gdal-dev] Writing multi-bands vs multi-datasets

[Joaquim Manuel Freire Luís]

I see thanks, will study it.
I'll end up learning some python at the force of studying it's examples

Joaquim,

https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/4634 should hopefully help

Hi,

I have a Julia version of gdal_translate (that ends up calling GDALDatasetRasterIOEx) that works in saving a MxNxP array, but not the way I wanted.
It creates a multi-subdatasets file, whilst what I wished is to write a multi-band file.

For example, the file written with this Julia function looks like below

How can I write a multi-band instead of a multi-datasets?
I've been looking at the docs of GDALDatasetRasterIOEx but can't see any way of picking one or the other.

Saving the same data (or similar) from a Matlab code that I wrote long ago to stack grids, shows
