Inside GDALAllRegister之二: 自动加载驱动

代码    GetGDALDriverManager()->AutoLoadDrivers(); 包含了两部分：

首先获得GDALDriverManager的singleton对象的指针，这点之前已经说明过，采用DCLP是个错误用法，不过可以通过下面的方法规避：

永远只在main函数内部单线程调用一次GDALAllRegister, 在其他线程尚未创建之前，singleton对象已经被创建出来

然后运行void GDALDriverManager::AutoLoadDrivers() 函数。这是本次分析的主要内容。注释写的不错，很容易就理解了该函数的逻辑。

/**
 * \brief Auto-load GDAL drivers from shared libraries.
 *
 * This function will automatically load drivers from shared libraries.  It
 * searches the "driver path" for .so (or .dll) files that start with the
 * prefix "gdal_X.so".  It then tries to load them and then tries to call a
 * function within them called GDALRegister_X() where the 'X' is the same as
 * the remainder of the shared library basename ('X' is case sensitive), or
 * failing that to call GDALRegisterMe().
 *
 * There are a few rules for the driver path.  If the GDAL_DRIVER_PATH
 * environment variable it set, it is taken to be a list of directories to
 * search separated by colons on UNIX, or semi-colons on Windows.  Otherwise
 * the /usr/local/lib/gdalplugins directory, and (if known) the
 * lib/gdalplugins subdirectory of the gdal home directory are searched on
 * UNIX and $(BINDIR)\gdalplugins on Windows.
 */

该函数在driver path中查找文件名为gdal_X.dll或者gdal_X.so的动态库文件。如果找到，就加载该动态库，并调用其中的GDALResiter_X()函数，每隔动态库都应该实现这个函数。X代表库的名称。

driver path可以通过设置环境变量GDAL_DRIVER_PATH来获得，path之间通过,或者;分隔。 如果没有设定环境变量，就使用默认查找路径：/usr/local/lib/gdalplugins,

并且：

1. 如果Unix下有gdal home 目录的话，还会找该目录下的lib/gdalplugins子目录，

2. 如果windows下会用$(BINDDIR)\gdalplugins 作为查找路径。这里$(BINDIR)值得是当前进程所在目录。

那个查找目录树的算法算不上糟糕，不过用惯了boost和newlisp的我，看到不禁皱眉头。太不优雅了。一帮C程序员在写C++代码，循环之后还要用CSLFree和CSLDestory 释放内存，有string不用。就算不用string，也可以自己写个简单的class啊。

很明显，GDAL的源代码并没有随着C++语言的发展而进步，让我不仅想起了ACE。

调试一遍后，发现我的GDAL代码在这里没有加载任何驱动。就是我想要的结果。：）
