Installing 0.10 release

There's a brand new 0.10 release available, and its install instructions are a bit different than those above.

FWTools

The easiest way to satisfy all the MapServer/GDAL dependencies on win32 is with FWTools. There are problems between very recent FWTools and PCL 0.10. FWTools 1.0.0-a7 is the only version known to work.

• download FWTools 1.0.0-a7
• run installer, installing to C:\Program Files\FWTools1.0.0a7
• modify your system's environment, setting the following variables:

GDAL_DATA=C:\Program Files\FWTools1.0.0a7\data
PROJ_LIB=C:\Program Files\FWTools1.0.0a7\proj_lib

• modify the system path, adding C:\Program Files\FWTools1.0.0a7\bin; to the head of the path
• modify the system pythonpath, adding C:\Program Files\FWTools1.0.0a7\pymod; to the head

Python Cartographic Library

• download http://www.gispython.org/downloads/gispy/PCL-0.10.0-win32.zip
• extract to a temp location, "c:\temp" for example
• cd to c:\temp\PCL-0.10.0-win32
• extract PCL-Referencing-0.10.0.win32.zip to a location such as "c:\software"
• extract PCL-0.10.0.win32.zip to a location such as "c:\software"
• result is c:\software\python23\Lib\site-packages\cartography\...
• modify the system pythonpath again, putting c:\software\python23\Lib\site-packages; at the head

Using with Plone

I (SeanGillies) find that modification of the system PYTHONPATH variable works great and makes installation of modules directly into the Plone folder unnecessary. Your mileage may vary.
