MITAB Users, After the fiasco of the previous MITAB 1.6.x releases, I have prepared a new MITAB 1.6.3-beta1 package that hopefully solves the remaining issue related to the new optimized spatial index introduced in v1.6.0 (More specifically: http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1732)
I need your help to test this beta with the optimized spatial index on various types of datasets and report on whether the files produced by this new version of MITAB work fine in MapInfo or not. The simplest way to test is to use the tab2tab program to convert a file using the -o option (enabling the optimized spatial index, that's important since that's what we want to test). e.g. tab2tab myfile.tab newname.tab -o Then verify that newname.tab loads and works fine in MapInfo. I have not included links to this beta on the MITAB website, you'll have to use the following links to get it: Source (.tar.gz): http://mitab.maptools.org/dl/mitab-1.6.3-beta1.tar.gz Source (.zip): http://mitab.maptools.org/dl/mitab-1.6.3-beta1.zip Windows binaries: http://mitab.maptools.org/dl/mitab-1.6.3-beta1-win32.zip Thanks in advance for your help in testing this beta.
