OGR Drivers are not enabled

[marcus-elia]

I have a working solution for my situation, so this is not time-sensitive.

Expected behavior and actual behavior.

In GDAL-3.3.0, I am having this problem. But in GDAL-2.4.3, it works.

I expected that calling GDALAllRegister(); would register the ESRI Shapefile driver, but it does not. The #ifdef SHAPE_ENABLED in OGRRegisterAllInternal() is evaluating to false, and so it is not calling RegisterOGRShape();. In fact, it seems that nothing is being registered inside of OGRRegisterAllInternal(). (I am manually calling RegisterOGRShape() in my own application, so I don't need help).

When I ran the configuration script, I did not disable any drivers.

Steps to reproduce the problem.

Zipped_shx_file.zip As an example, running ogrinfo on the attached .shx file yields

whereas on GDAL-2.4.3 I get

GDAL version and provenance

GDAL-3.3.0 is not working, GDAL-2.4.3 is working.

When I ran the configuration script, I did not disable any drivers.

thre must be something particular or wrong in the way you built GDAL. You should provide precise way to reproduce this

[marcus-elia]

I did wget "http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/3.3.0/gdal-3.3.0.tar.gz tar -xzf gdal-3.3.0.tar.gz In order to link with the specific version of Proj that I wanted, I added the lines -Wl,-rpath,<path to Proj>/lib \ -Wl,--disable-new-dtags \ to line 79 of GNUmakefile and then ran ./configure --prefix=<install path> --with-proj=<path to Proj> --with-python=<path to python> make CXXFLAGS="-Og -g" CFLAGS="-Og -g" all -j4 sudo make install

are you sure you didn't made other changes to GDAL source tree ? What is the output of ./configure ? If you did several consecutive builds, make sure to run "make clean" before rebuilding. If that still persists, if you could put together a simple Dockerfile that would reproduce the issue that would be even better

I did run make clean before building.

Near the end of the output of ./configure is

I can look into putting together a Dockerfile.

Closing. Too particular use case specific to autoconf builds, that eventually will be discontinued
