Hi

don't know if this helps:
I see one possible implementation for a conditional rule like
if (<exp>) {
 some rules
} else {
other rules
}
where <exp> would be something like tag=val, maybe also a parameter given to 
the program.
If someone knows how to implement the syntax parser for such an if-thent-else 
clause the evaluation could simply

It would be easier for the parser without curly braces:

if (<exp)
 some rules
else
 other rules
endif

I could make that work.

..Steve
translate the if (<exp>) to a rule like
exp {set special_var_x=true;}
and then add this special tag with tag=true or tag!=true to each conditional 
rule.
So, we would not  need many changes in the evaluation of the rules, only in the 
parser.

Gerd

Hi Andrzej, can you not make use of mkgmap:country to handle this scenario?

mkgmap:country=DZA | mkgmap:country=AGO |  mkgmap:country=SHN |
mkgmap:country=BEN ... {set continent=AF}

continent=AF & landuse=farmland [0x10f01 level 1]

Would mkgmap be better with a mkgmap:continent variable using
place=continent added?

Regards,
Mike

Hi Dave,

I think the idea is to include some preprocessing capability to style
interpreter.

I develop a single style for my topo maps, but I need some possibility
to get a small variation in style depending on region. For example I
prefer to show landuse=farmland on a map of Africa but to remove it on a
map of Europe. So instead of maintaining 2 nearly identical styles, I
would like to get a conditional statement, something like:

if (SHOW_FARMS) (
        landuse=farmland [0x10f01 level 1]
)

and then add (or not) an option to mkgmap like --style-define=SHOW_FARMS

Best regards,
Andrzej
