Constantin,<br><br>In GDAL code, autoconf is used with <a href="http://configure.in">configure.in</a> to generate the configure script. In earlier versions of autoconf, <a href="http://configure.ac">configure.ac</a> was named <a href="http://configure.in">configure.in</a>, which is still being used here. I believe it works almost the same. It is handwritten.<br>
<br>Refer to <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc8_devguide">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc8_devguide</a> for developer guidelines. A test script in python is created in the autotest suite for each driver (<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest</a>). You can look at the other raster driver test scripts at <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest/gdrivers">http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/autotest/gdrivers</a> for a general idea. Add any tests you think are specific to this format.<br>
<br>Your code will go through a GDAL maintainer. So, don't worry too much about styling, etc.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Aug 5, 2010 at 1:48 AM, Constantin Jucovschi <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:c.jucovschi@jacobs-university.de">c.jucovschi@jacobs-university.de</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
My question concerns the configure script. I cannot find a<br>
<a href="http://configure.ac" target="_blank">configure.ac</a> file to specify the libraries which have to be searched<br>
for in order to be able to compile/use rasdaman driver for GDAL. Does<br>
that mean I should write code in the <a href="http://configure.in" target="_blank">configure.in</a> file, which does<br>
look like it's handwritten? Is there any requirements on code<br>
style/readability/testing I should know?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
Constantin<br>
