Re: [udig-devel] Problem with .sid georeferenced images

Hmm, I'm wondering why the format is listed on 64bits system. I thought the GDALFormatProvider would check, whether the format is supported ... we have to verify the expected behavior of 
GDALUtilities.isDriverAvailable(). 

.. lets start debugging  (against a 1.3.1 JRE with gdal 1.7.3)

GDALUtilities.isGDALAvailable() returns false -> checked

therefore GDALUtilities.isDriverAvailable() will never checked for gdal supported formats (sid, ecw, ntf, dt0, img, etc). 

these formats are not listed in the FileDialog Extensions list.

seems to be the expected behavior but I'm wondering about Daniels scenario (1.3.1 64bit windows version) and why he gets a FileDialog where sid-Format is in list... 

Now I got it: the new GDALFormatProvider will be in the new Release 1.3.2 and doesn't exists in 1.3.1 (hard coded extensions in catalog.imageio plugin.xml) therefor Daniel got listed the formats. 

In addition the 1.3.1 release doesn't have the gdal_data folder and the gdal libs in the JRE (referenced in udig_internal.bat/sh). Seems the release is not complete packaged.

Whats next? 
 - Is this correct that the gdal stuff is missing in the x64 release?
 - I'll try the x86 gdal libs and create a native fragment for gdal ..
 - We should start creating a feature matrix like Daniel suggested -> Everybody can see the platform specific needs and supported formats (Can we grep this from geosolutions/gdal ?)
 - review build process again

I've to verify this on a 64bit system. Can anybody test with the current sources with a JRE64 bit and installed GDAL what

I run uDig 1.2.2 on my 64bit system and can open MrSid files

bundled with 1.2.2:
* JRE : 1.6.0_26
* GDAL : 1.7.3

Should we create a ticket for this (bundle udig with 32 JRE's) until
gdal has 64bit support)?
I see native support for linux 64 here:

If it would help get us organised then by all means make a bug report.
