projection info (.prj file) from ESRI Shape [message #47359]

hi, all,

Just finished some codes for reading vector and attribute data from
ESRI Shape by using IDLffShape Object.

ESRI shape file stores its projection (if any) in a text file (.prj).
But IDLffShape does not support reading it. My shape files can be in
different projection, very tedius to change them mannually to
longitude/latitude in other GIS like ArcGIS.

Is there any IDL routine, which can read/ parse the projection
information from projection file (.prj file) of ESRI Shape?

thanks.

Fang
