File Geodatabase Git

1. If one tries to download the source as z ipped file one gets a truncated (and thus unusable) archive

2. The web page makes reference to precompiled versions of this SDK with no indication of where those zip files may be found.

Can you provide a link to the page where you are having troubles downloading the source as zipped?

this? https://github.com/Esri/file-geodatabase-api/tree/master/FileGDB_API_1.5.1

Dan

Thanks for that. Your email has a URL with the links that let me download.

The page I was visiting referenced those same files, but they were

not links, just text, and gave no indication of where those files could

be found.

I have visited the URL you gave, and have been able to download the

file I sought.

glad it worked out Robert

The page I am looking at refers to many different files e.g. FileGDB_API_1_5_1-64clang.zip

but none of these references are links. I see no way to navigate to those files as presented to me on the web page

(I would rather use a pre-compiled download, but given I could not find, downloaded the source zip instead only to find that the zip file was corrupt -- or incomplete)

[JoshuaBixby]

I can download the ZIP file you reference both by clicking the Download button and View Raw link.  I open the ZIP files and they are fine, no corruption.  Have you tried a different browser or clearing the cache on your browser?

It seems that I misunderstood the use of the download button. I expected that the files named in the instructions would actually be be links. I suppose one is supposed to click the appropriate API in the left hand column, and this will then display links to the actual archive files that can be downloaded. I merely clicked the clone or download button: this obviously does not do what I expected.
