I have a need to be able to connect to and edit ArcSDE data in QGIS.
This question has been asked before as:
https://hub.qgis.org/wiki/17/Connecting_to_ArcSDE_databases
and apparently is possible, but the instructions are just not specific enough for me to follow...
I was able to get the sde-9.3/ogr_SDE.dll from the MapServer zip download and place it in C:\OSGeo4W64\bin\gdalplugins, but then what?
I've read I need to compile it, but how and with what?
I've read I need to create a vrt file.
Is there a tool that creates a vrt file or should I just open notepad and write one?
Then how do I add the vrt file to QGIS?
