It does. This is the first sentence: "OGR supports reading most versions of AutoCAD DWG when built with the Open Design Alliance Teiga library." Feel free to submit a PR to make it clearer (the doc of the DGNv8 driver https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/dgnv8.html is perhaps a bit clearer) > What is the process for including the gdal driver in the build? Is there a > newbie tutorial on how to build gdal from source? Thank you, The comment about building being ad-hoc is probably outdated. This is not so bad, at least on Linux From what I've available there: For Linux ./configure --with-teigha=/path/to/Teigha_lnxX64_5.3dll For Windows, you need to tweak with the TD_ variables in nmake.opt The instructions seems a bit outdated. I believe I tried on Windows, but don't have that config available anymore.
