OGDI Build

Last change: 2005/7/3

OGDI version: 3.1.5

ogdi.sourceforge.net (look in the Download Archive for v3.1.5 if it isn't listed on the main page.)

The OGDI source has an odd configuration. There is a 'configure', but it doesn't get Mac OS X/Darwin right. There is also a preset darwin configuration, but it needs some adjustments, and that's how we'll do it here.

In a Terminal type (supply admin password when asked):

$ cd path_to_folder_containing_ogdi_source.tar.gz
$ tar -zxf ogdi-3.1.5.tar.gz

Grab these patches and unzip them into the OGDI source folder. Note: these patches are for OGDI version 3.1.4 and 3.1.5. They configure OGDI for PROJ, zlib and Expat, fix the shared library build, and fix the driver loading for dylibs.

Then continue (Note: you DON'T run configure. If you do it will overwrite darwin.mak with something useless):

$ cd ogdi-3.1.5
$ patch config/darwin.mak darwin.mak.patch
$ patch ogdi/c-api/ecs_dyna.c ecs_dyna.c.patch
$ export TOPDIR=path_to_source

path_to_source is the full path to OGDI source folder.

$ export TARGET=darwin
$ make
$ sudo make install

And clean up the environment:

$ unset TARGET TOPDIR
