Hi again,
Once I am at it, I could also report another issue with the FileGDB driver.
The driver re-projects my test geodatabase from WGS84 to NAD83 without
any problems, but when trying to re-project to EPSG:3035 (ETRS89/LAEA
Europe), I end up with a "General function failure", see more details below.
I am not sure what the actual issue is, but a quick Internet search
suggests that the FileGDB API's "General function failure" might be
related to problems with understanding the SRS. Maybe OGR's SRS
definition is not "ESRI-friendly" enough when trying to create the
geodatabase(?). According to my experience, the classic problem with the
LAEA projection is the parameter name: "Central_Meridian"(ESRI) versus
"longitude_of_center" (GDAL/OGR).
Would it be worth filing a ticket?
