[Qgis-developer] QGis 1.9 gdal.h not found

[Etienne Tourigny]

Hi, that tutorial is quite old, and qgis has changed quite a bit since
then...

most probably your gdal.h is not in the include search path.

Did you instal libgdal-dev with your package manager?

If not you need to set CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH and possibly C_INCLUDE_PATH to
the include dir where you installed gdal.

cheers
Etienne
