I could not compile my code along with other formats in frmts due to my insufficient experience in using nmake projects. http://www.gdal.org/gdal_drivertut.html gives information on writing a driver. Is there a document on compiling the driver? I need to be able to specify the search path for include files for the compiler and input files for the linker.
