Re: [Viking-devel] Tiles get deleted in offline mode
Hi, 2011/9/11 Lixus Zoran g...@muellers.ms: I just noticed, that this bug is back in latest git trunk. I already filed a bug report and it got resolved, but it seems viking is now again deleting tiles if auto download map is enabled and there is no connection to the internet. Can one of the superusers please reopen this bug http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=3042692group_id=83870atid=570954 Thanks BTW: At the moment navit saved my live cause it can render osm maps on the fly offline, but it lacks gpx way- trackpoin layer support. Yes, navit is really usefull. I discovered it this year and played with it this summer (on freerunner). For offline browsing, vector data is *the* solution. Concerning GPS logging, Navit can do the job: it is really configurable, but not user friendly. The tracking is activated via the configuration file, an run automatically in background, AFAIK. Recently, I discovered MCNavi, an other offline OSM GPS, with tracking solution. Perhaps a better alternative, depending what you need. http://www.gps-routes.info/index.php?name=Contentpa=showpagepid=1 Please, note that I try to collect many related projects: https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/viking/index.php?title=Links But who know, perhaps viking 2.0 will be able to render osm map tiles on demand. There is some work on this direction: http://repo.or.cz/w/viking/gosmore.git Needs to be completed and, most of all, updated to current viking. -- Guilhem BONNEFILLE -=- JID: gu...@im.apinc.org MSN: guilhem_bonnefi...@hotmail.com -=- mailto:guilhem.bonnefi...@gmail.com -=- http://nathguil.free.fr/ -- Using storage to extend the benefits of virtualization and iSCSI Virtualization increases hardware utilization and delivers a new level of agility.

Can one of the superusers please reopen this bug http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detailaid=3042692group_id=83870atid=570954 This took a while but I think I understand this now (limited by my git fu knowledge) The offending line is in download.c at line 241: g_remove ( fn ); /* couldn't create temporary. delete 0-byte file. */ This was originally fixed by commit 4945e425d481ca7b9a4c6e00a8e11bff79d254a4 by Jocelyn back in 2010-09-13. *HOWEVER*, it appears that by the subsequent merging of the remote branch 'jocelyn/etag' on 2010-10-11 this somehow restores the offending line. [I don't quite understand how/why this line was restored but the second chunk of the patch is kept - I can't seem to track an exact commit where it actually changes!**] ** If anyone can find the exact reason / commit why this happened - please explain as I would like to understand. git bissect drives me to commit b529dc9c00bbafad3671e76e719277d4deecddbc Exploring history, I also conclude that it is the first commit where the bug came back. But I do not understand how, as git show do not display such a change. -- Guilhem BONNEFILLE -=- JID: gu...@im.apinc.org MSN: guilhem_bonnefi...@hotmail.com -=- mailto:guilhem.bonnefi...@gmail.com -=- http://nathguil.free.fr/ -- Using storage to extend the benefits of virtualization and iSCSI Virtualization increases hardware utilization and delivers a new level of agility.
