When I work with them it usually involves diving into the C/C++ sources. However I would like to start documenting the API for the gdal/ogr bindings. For your immediate needs of manipulating a shapefile have a look at GeoRuby which has tools for reading/writing shapefiles, eg.: http://georuby.rubyforge.org/svn/GeoRuby/trunk/tools/shp2sql.rb Sadly there is no documentation for the ruby bindings and infact they are not being actively maintained.

I would love to locate the sources and at least generate documentation for them. Using this API without any sense of what which method expects as parameters is rather no funny. Thanks for any response! Hi,
