Re: [mkgmap-dev] possible bug? mkgmap freezes with lines only routing style

Actually I just thought about one possible problem, as I don't know how the mkgmap:noindex=true will be implemented. What happens when a user simply rebuilds the address index of existing .img files without using a style-file when mkgmap:noindex=true had been set for problematic cases? a)

Hi I think you did not understand what I meant. Maybe, that's the problem with talking about options that don't exist :) There are two indexes that we might be talking about. 1. A road index in the .img. If there are 2000 Path roads then there will be 2000 entries Path in this index. 2. The

thanks for clearing that up. I didn't know enough about the indexes. So style-file command is enough for anything that I can imagine. ___ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev

maybe it would be a good idea to have a command line switch *and* a style rule. the command line switch would have to default to no-index=false, otherwise indexing in all older styles would break. a 2nd optinon no-index=true could automatically add a no-index tag to all lines which then can

Yes that is probably best. I set names pretty extensively, and even I would only need about 80 additional lines of code in my lines style with mkgmap:noindex=true (as I have to duplicate all lines where names are set to have one with name!=* set mkgmap:nopreviousname=yes and then check that

it would make a lot of sense if such names do not find their way into the index. to control that behaviour flagging those ways via the style file feels like the most flexible method. Am 29.10.2011 15:57, schrieb Steve Ratcliffe: Hi I would like some opinions please from those that make maps.

I can confirm that behaviour. Although in real mkgmap does not freeze (endless loop) but is working very very hard. Possibly the mkgmap code is not very optimal for the special test case. @Steve, the code requires a very long time in the NETFile.simplifySortedRoads method because I think there
