Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Problems with the irish boundaries preset and josm
A new stable version of josm has been released (version 9900, https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Changelog). So if you are following stable versions and haven't changed anything else, you'll see that the townland preset doesn't recognize existing MP relations anymore (it only offers to create a new relation). There is a fixed version of the preset, but that version prevents previous josm-stable version (9329 and earlyer) from starting. This is a bigger annoyance than an unrecognized relation type, so we'll wait until most people have updated their josm before switching to the new version by default. In the meantime, you can change your preset settings (menu preset -> preset preferences -> active presets) to match your josm version: * use http://maps.openstreetmap.ie/josm/irishboundaries-dev.xml if you have upgraded. * use http://maps.openstreetmap.ie/josm/irishboundaries-9329.xml if you intend to stay with the old josm version for a while (why ?). * do nothing if you aren't affected by the bug or can wait until we change the version for you. ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Problems with the irish boundaries preset and josm
Thanks everyone, for your extensive discussions and labour on this. I have been doing a little hand coding of town lands, which is cumbersome when you get used to the preset. I did find that the new version of OSX hides the Library folder from users, so always useful learning… Stephen > On 18 Feb 2016, at 15:09, moltonel 3x Combo wrote: > > Hi all, > > there's currently a problem with the irish boundaries preset and josm, > depending on your version of josm.

Re: [OSM-talk-ie] Problems with the irish boundaries preset and josm
I've reverted irishboundaries.xml back to the old format that josm-tested expects. It should read version 8. You might have to delete your cached version of irishboundaries.xml. If you use josm-latest then you can use irishboundaries-dev.xml. I wouldn't use josm-latest unless you follow the josm changesets closely, like readling java source code and are prepared to submit helpful bug reports to the josm bug tracker. ;-) Donal On 18 February 2016 at 15:09, moltonel 3x Combo wrote: > Hi all, > > there's currently a problem with the irish boundaries preset and josm, > depending on your version of josm.

[OSM-talk-ie] Problems with the irish boundaries preset and josm
Hi all, there's currently a problem with the irish boundaries preset and josm, depending on your version of josm. The current version of the preset has been tweaked to work better with recent josm versions, but that change breaks josm-stable (9329) and earlyer. There doesn't seem to be a way to write the preset file that works well with both versions of josm. So if you get a parsing error when you start josm, I suggest you fetch a josm-latest build. Alternatively, you can undo the modification to the preset file before starting josm: open the cache/mirror...irishboundaries.xml file and search&replace ",multipolygon" with "". If you're on linuxor osx, you can do this by running "sed -i ~/.josm/cache/*irishboundaries.xml s/,mutipolygon//". Sorry for the inconvenience (I'm the one who fixed/broke the preset for recent/old versions of josm). If you can't update your josm or tweak your cached preset file, contact me here or on irc for more help. ___ Talk-ie mailing list Talk-ie@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ie
