[Geoserver-devel] imageio-ext-gdal switching to GDAL 2.x

Hi,
in order to align the resurrecting OGR store and the imageio-ext GDAL stuff we are going to switch
imageio-ext to use the GDAL 2.x bindings (the 2.2.0 ones in particular, since I’ve done most of the
testing with them, but verified they work with 2.4 natives too).

So a new imageio-ext 1.3.0 version will be created that depends on the new GDAL, and master
will be switched to use it.

Also, imageio-ext master contains a few old “incomplete experiments” that we have been pushing forward ever since,
e.g., 1.2.x was branched off 1.1.x, not from master.
Since we are there, we are going to rename master to something else (master-2019-ex?), and fork a new
master branch off 1.2.x, this hopefully will allow us to do some more “normal” branch management
(except that we’ll cut releases from the new master, imageio-ext has no place for “experimental stuff”
since GT,GWC and GS only depend to it from official releases, not snapshots).

Cheers
Andrea

Is it worth bumping the version number from 1.2.x to 2.0.x to reflect the compatibility with GDAL 2.x?

The release is already out, you replied to a message that was almost a month old :smiley:
That said, I don’t believe that it warrants such update, the most important part in imageio-ext are the streams
and the TIFF reader, those were unchanged.
Usage of the GDAL plugins in deployments is not that common… I believe we have more deployments around using the
JP2K bindings on top of the commercial Kakadu library, just to give you an idea.

Yeah was catching up while testing recent release. I am sensitive to this as it is a common reason for failed builds for me locally.

Really glad to see the update to GDAL 2.x :slight_smile:
