Description
In current SVN trunk, PostGIS file lwgeom_transform.c includes private header of PROJ.4 - projects.h. This header is...private and should not be included form PROJ.4 client code. Instead, proj_api.h should be used. However, replacing these headers requires number of changes in lwgeom_transform.c. For instance, use API call(s) instead of accessing internal structures:
current code:
if( !srcdefn->is_latlong )
new code:
if( !pj_is_latlong( srcdefn ) )
Including private header projects.h makes it impossible to compile using Microsoft Visual C++ compiler, becasue of well-known conflicts with definitions from windows.h. Here is confirmation of existence of that issue: http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-dev/2005-May/005669.html
I've just (re)hit this problem and it stops me from moving forward with building PostGIS using Visual C++.
