[Qgis-developer] Interlis support of OGR inside QGIS (make it default? modify make files? Windows but not only...)

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Stefan,

You should use Marco Hugentoblers Interlis plugin to load files, which,
like you said uses OGR. It just makes the OGR handling easier and allows
to select only certain topics/tables.

What exactly is the problem? What error message are you getting?

I believe that Interlis should be enabled by default by QGIS 1.5 or QGIS
1.6. It works on my machine for small and medium sized itf's but fails for
big itfs. I haven't tested Interlis 2 so far.
