I have finally compiled my C program and tried running it for the

[t...@updraft ~/Programs]$ ./gdal_test_convert
ERROR 10: Pointer 'hDriver' is NULL in 'OGR_Dr_CreateDataSource'.
I'm trying to load the ESRI Shapefile driver. When I compiled it I
linked it to the libgdal.a library. Is there something I'm missing?
#include "ogr_api.h"
#include "ogr_srs_api.h"
#include "stdio.h"
...
//~ get driver and create ds
driver = OGRGetDriverByName("ESRI Shapefile");
ds = OGR_Dr_CreateDataSource(driver, "testc.shp", NULL);
Dead Pickle,
I believe you need to call OGRRegisterAll() before calling the get driver
function.
Best regards,
