I'm not sure what you mean by "objects" in this context. Do you mean methods
and structures?
It seems like you are referring to a lot of older mailing list threads. It is
probably better to read the code.
For the DES case, you can see how GDAL does it through gdalinfo, with a command
like:
.
I found this,
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/gdal-dev-NITF-DES-Data-td5448580.html (
and other threads) -- so it sounds like to parse a NITF DES you need to
rebuild GDAl with the ESRI_BUILD flag. Is this correct ?
Mover-over, I've been trying to find some c++ sample code to parse a NITF
DES.
