SDE Driver : MSVCP71D.dll (debug) dependency

[Mike Taves]

While attempting to use gdal-sde92 (1.5.0-1) on a Win2003SP2 computer, I get 2 errors: the first described in this ticket, and the second being an (older?) issue from GDAL ticket 2552.

After installing gdal-sde92 (1.5.0-1) from OSGeo4W Curr, trying a command like gdalinfo.exe shows a dialog (twice):

This application has failed to start because MSVCP71D.dll was not found.

and console output:

ERROR 1: Can't load requested DLL: c:\OSGeo4W\bin\gdalplugins\gdal_SDE.dll
126: The specified module could not be found.

ERROR 1: Can't load requested DLL: c:\OSGeo4W\bin\gdalplugins\gdal_SDE.dll
126: The specified module could not be found.

This error is due to the build of gdal_SDE.dll with debugging enabled (MSVCP71D.dll). This dependency should exist.

More info:

$ gdalinfo.exe --version
GDAL 1.5.4, released 2009/01/07

---

The second error is when ogrinfo is used on something normal, like "ogrinfo myshapefile.shp":

$ ogrinfo myshapefile.shp
ERROR 4: SDE Driver doesn't support update.
Had to open data source read-only.
INFO: Open of `myshapefile.shp'
      using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.
1: myshapefile (Point)

This error is likely related to ​http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/2552

I do not know how to get the version info from OGR (-version or --version or -v or -V flags do nothing).

Correction:

"This dependency should exist" -> "This dependency should not exist"

Howard,

I believe this package was repackaged by me from the binaries you provided on the GDAL download site for 1.5.x. Is it practical for you to rebuild these?

We have GDAL 1.9.2 - this can't be current.

This is still a current issue with gdal-sde92 version 1.5.0-1.

​http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/osgeo4w-dev/2013-April/002169.html

Depends on gdal_SDE.dll/ogr_SDE.dll shows dependence on:

• GDAL15.DLL (provided by OSGeo4W, in bin directory)
• SDE.DLL (user supplied, along with PE.DLL and SG.DLL)
• MSVCP71D.DLL
• MSVCR71D.DLL

The last two, as stated before, are debug run-time libraries. This needs to be recompiled as a release target instead, with dependencies on the the existing msvc[pr]71.dll files that are redistributed with OSGeo4W.

Replying to mwtoews:

This is still a current issue with gdal-sde92 version 1.5.0-1.

The point is that these packages are for GDAL 1.5 and we moved to GDAL 1.9.2. I marked the packages obsolete (as earlier the ECW plugins) and opened a new ticket #353.
