Hi,
  GDALOpen is unable to open URLs, it is giving the following error:

ERROR 4: `http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1999/of99-396/data/imagery/utmd00/bathy1.tif' 
does not exist in the file system,
and is not recognised as a supported dataset name.

The following is the code snippet:

 GDALDriver         *hDriver;
 GDALDataset        *hSrcDS;

 GDALAllRegister();

 hSrcDS = (GDALDataset 
*)GDALOpen("http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1999/of99-396/data/imagery/utmd00/bathy1.tif",GA_ReadOnly
 );


If I remember correctly, I was earlier able to read directly from URLs. Am I 
missing some library here? Please help. thanks.

Upendra,

The http driver depends on GDAL having been built with libcurl.  The
configure option is --with-curl.

Best regards,
