Building GDAL 1.9 with MDB (PGeo) support on OS X Lion
- Download and install the "Java for Mac OS X 10.7 Update 1 Developer Package" from https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
- Download jackcess-1.2.6.jar from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jackcess/files/jackcess/1.2.6/jackcess-1.2.6.jar/download
- Download http://mdb-sqlite.googlecode.com/files/mdb-sqlite-1.0.2.tar.bz2 to get commons-lang-2.4.jar and commons-logging-1.1.1.jar. They will go alongside jackcess in the $CLASSPATH after it builds.
- In the GDAL source root, edit the configure.in and replace it with https://gist.github.com/1975654

Building GDAL 1.9 with ESRI FileGDB support on OS X Lion

Building GDAL 1.9.x with ESRI FileGDB support on OS X Lion

  • Download the SDK from ESRI's website http://resources.arcgis.com/content/geodatabases/10.0/file-gdb-api
  • Extract the SDK, and put the contents of the directory in a known location, I used ~/local/filegdb. Here's an example path to one of the files: ~/local/filegdb/lib/libFileGDBAPI.dylib
  • I use ~/local/filegdb so it can stay isolated in it's own place. You can put it anywhere, but the next few steps might be different.
  • Go into the directory containing the FileGDB SDK, e.g. ~/local/filegdb
  • ESRI built these dylib's using @rpath's, so to avoid needing to mess with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, I updated the @rpath's using install_name_tool. There might be a more elegant way to handle this. If so, comments are welcome!
  • Here are the commands I used to patch the dylibs, this is not required if you want to use DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH yourself:
