[GRASS-dev] d.rast.multi ?

2013-03-19 Thread Yann Chemin
I am dealing with hourly Microwave data that are not covering the
whole World in each layer.

To have a decent presentation map of the data, I'd like to get a set
(say 30-50 layers) displayed in one go.

OK I could do it with the png driver in a script (which is what it may
eventually become), but for the sake of knowledge, is there a GUI
option to load a (rather large) set of images in one block without
having to struggle with a cluttered GIS Manager?

Thanks
Yann

Yes, it is my favorite feature. I use it even to find and add one map.

However, there is some issue with many layers in layer manager. If you
load more than 20 (?) layers (maps) only some of them will be
rendered. There were no investigations; maybe it applies only to
vectors. And, of course, it is slow.

 Thanks !

[GRASS-dev] Grass7 tech-preview release [was Re: [GRASS-user] to move or not move ? grass64 - ? - 7.0]

Binary

Linux Download page,
but I could not find any binaries there for GRASS 7? Maybe this link should be 
removed?

Just wondering, but not a problem, as I am going to install from source anyway.


In the past days I have cleaned up several of the Web pages.
I hope they are much clearer now. GRASS 7 downloads are now properly
mentioned as well.


Much clearer now !

I would like to take this debate as an opportunity to touch upon the 
question of a possible tech-preview release of GRASS7.


Several reasons for that:

- More and more people are using it (and we are pushing more and more 
people toward using it). Binaries are available for windows and mac, but 
not for most Linux distributions. A preview release might make it easier 
for these distributions to package grass7 and make it available to a 
larger audience.


- In many institutions it is (understandably) not easy to convince 
IT-managers to install development snapshots instead of released 
software. Having an official release (even if it is only a tech-preview 
release) should make it easier to install grass7 in institutional settings.


- I think that grass7 is in a form where we can start advertising it 
more widely and more officially. In terms of timing, it would be great 
to be able to get this out before FOSS4G.


- From my own egotistical viewpoint, I would love to be able to use 
grass7 in my classes next school year, and having a release would make 
it much easier for me to do that.


Concretely, I see the following type of procedure to make it possible:

- Freeze the svn repository for any direct new commits for a short 
period (I'd say max 1-2 weeks). Only a few release managers should 
still have direct commit access at this point. (Another way to do it 
would be to keep commit rights open to anyone, and the role of the 
release managers would be to control all commits and revert those that 
aren't simple bug fixes during the freeze).


- Publish the state of the code at the beginning of the freeze as RC1 
with a wide call for testing.


- Only bug fix* commits.

- Publish RC2 after some bug fixing (possibly after one week).

- Continue bug fixing*.

- Release tech-preview (possibly at the end of week 2) with a huge 
disclaimer that this is a tech-preview release and not considered final 
and stable.


- Open repository again for more general development.


I don't think we should create a release branch as this would just be a 
tech-preview snaphot of the ongoing development.


This obviously implies that we plan ahead and that all developers know 
when this freeze will happen, thus avoiding to commit any large and 
fundamental changes just before the freeze. And that we all put aside 
time during that freeze for testing and bug fixing.


What do you think ?

[GRASS-dev] minimal wxPython version

2013-03-19 Thread Anna Kratochvílová
Hi all,

I would like to change minimal required version of wxPython [1].
Currently we support (theoretically) version 2.8.1.1 (released 2007).
I suggest to change it to 2.8.10.1 (2009), for example 2.8.10.1 was
shipped with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. The reason is obvious: wxGUI is limited
by this requirement. Even the 2.8.10.1 version is pretty old so I
think this won't hurt anybody. Any objections?

[1] http://grass.osgeo.org/grass70/source/snapshot/REQUIREMENTS.html


PS - There is a similar problem with Python version (required 2.4).
Some interesting features start with 2.5 but usually we can live
without it. Any opinions?

Comment:

 I know this is marked as closed, but I do want to just chime in to say
 that this a problem on ANY linux windowing system using overlay
 scrollbars. That includes both Unity and Xfce, and perhaps several others.
 Thus, anyone trying to use GRASS on these systems is going to run intot
 this problem, and it is a BIG problem, as it renders GRASS basically
 unuseable. This may be related to other, more deeper problems with GRASS
 menus, but since there is such an easy, very non-invasive way to fix this
 for most by adding the line:

 {{{
 export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0
 }}}

 to the grass startup script, why not just do that by default?

2013-03-19 Thread Michael Barton
I think this is a good idea. 

At the moment, GRASS 7 seems stable and everything or almost everything is 
working for Mac. There are a few issues, but not major ones. One thing I 
remember is a problem with the display of north arrows. Volume display is still 
unstable, but that is a problem with both ver. 6 and 7.

[GRASS-dev] KR functions in GRASS 7

2013-03-19 Thread Vaclav Petras
Hi,

we still have KR style functions in C code? They work the same but I
though that they were rewritten.

Doxygen warns about this in these files:

/home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/raster3d/volume.c
/home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/external/shapelib/dbfopen.c
/home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/external/shapelib/shpopen.c
/home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/db/sqlp/sqlp.tab.c

In some files KR style is in #ifs but in others KR is the only style.

I just want to make it public.

It seems to be a good idea.
However, i have to apply the 3D raster patch[1] then as soon as
possible to get the voxel stuff working with large data. But this will
bring the risk of losing backward compatibility  .

Please exclude the temporal GIS stuff in the tech-preview 7.0 release,

this will happen time by time... We have two options:

1) start releasing tech-previews later
2) start releasing tech-previews earlier with risk of breaking
whatever you can imagine

 Please exclude the temporal GIS stuff in the tech-preview 7.0 release,
 since so many manual pages are still missing.

Hm, there will be more unstable or non-documented areas in GRASS 7.
Excluding them from tech-previewes will be extra work for packagers
and the benefit will be debatable.

[GRASS-dev] Programming manual updated

2013-03-19 Thread Vaclav Petras
Hi,

recently programming manual for vector library was updated. The main
addition is FAQ page [1]. Questions were answered by MarkusM. Thank
you Markus. I hope that more questions will be added and answered in
the future.

The smaller changes includes removing of last Doxygen entries from
dglib and rtree directories which were considered as confusing and not
helpful because they are not part of the GRASS API.

The number of Doxygen warnings was reduced by a small clean up. Feel
free to continue. There are many warnings which can be fixed easily if
you know the code or documentation. The reduced number of warnings
will help to catch the new ones. However, contributing the
documentation itself is even more welcome.

Sometimes, Doxygen can be complex. If you are unsure with Doxygen
syntax or rearing Doxygen warnings feel free to contact me on mailing
list or personally. I will try to help.

Thanks also MarkusN for managing programming manual on the sever.

Vaclav

You can generate documentation yourself and save the error messages to a file:

PATH=/home/vasek/app/doxygen-svn/bin/:$PATH make htmldox-single 
stddox.log 2 errordox.log

I usually filter some warnings not related to my files or so:

grep -v are not documented errordox.log | grep -v ^  parameter
'.*'$ | grep -v  is not found in the argument list  | grep -v tag
Layer found |grep -v Found unknown command .*mapset | grep -v
Found unknown command .*PERMANENT  errordox-filtered.log

This reason is too weak :) I think that excluding it is way more work that
writing draft manual pages. I can assist with that (we can discuss offlist).

Patch that removes the buggy LRE compression has been applied to trunk

Thank you Doug,

yes r.patch is a good alternative, but it means writing to disk etc.
Was more thinking of a display memory thingy.

Been thinking about the virtual rasters indeed, maybe will have a
look, any C code page you could direct me to?

 Doxygen warns about this in these files:

Fixed in r55463.

 /home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/external/shapelib/dbfopen.c
 /home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/external/shapelib/shpopen.c

I can't see any KR style declarations in these files. It's possible
that the SHPAPI_CALL macro is confusing Doxygen.

 /home/vasek/dev/grass/trunk/lib/db/sqlp/sqlp.tab.c

This isn't a source file, it's an intermediate file generated from
sqlp.y using yacc or bison.

FWIW, the file which bison generates uses ANSI C syntax if __STDC__ is
defined (which is the case for any ANSI C compiler).
