MIGRATION GUIDE FROM GDAL 1.X to GDAL 2.0 ----------------------------------------- This file documents backwards incompatible changes. C++ API: * GDALRasterAttributeTable is now an abstract class. See http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc40_enhanced_rat_support The functionnality of GDAL 1.X GDALRasterAttributeTable is now in GDALDefaultRasterAttributeTable. OGR drivers : * Due to RFC 41, if a OGR driver calls SetGeomType(wkbNone) on a layer, it will be impossible to affect geometries to features of that layer. This worked before, although it was inconsistant, but it does no longer now. In the developmenet of RFC 41, the CSV and VRT drivers have been upgraded to fix such errors. Changes that should likely not impact anybody : * OGRGeometry::exportToGEOS() and OGRGeometryFactory::createFromGEOS() now take a GEOSContextHandle_t argument ( GEOS >= 3.1.0 ) * OGRGeometryFactory::getGEOSGeometryFactory() has been removed. This method returned NULL since 2006 ( http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/9899/trunk/ogr/ogrgeometryfactory.cpp )
