roadtrip no longer happy
by Greg Troxel 01 Nov '09

01 Nov '09

I updated mkgmap to r1337, and found that my overview img/tdb changed names. I adjusted gmapibuilder invocation to reference those, and that succeeded. But on loading into roadtrip I get a "The map you selected contains some errors and cannot be displayed. The default map is being shown instead." popup. The test map fails more spectactularly, crashing roadtrip and then I have to rm it from ~/Library.... before I can start it. (script I used attached; test data was josm-downloaded bits of my town, and then cloudmade massachusetts.osm.bz2) Has anyone had recent success with roadtrip? I probably should try bisecting svn to find when this behavior started.

Commit: r1340: Fix exclusion of synthesised ways from oneway routing problem messages.
by svn commit 01 Nov '09

01 Nov '09

Version 1340 was commited by markb on 2009-11-01 18:57:42 +0000 (Sun, 01 Nov 2009) Fix exclusion of synthesised ways from oneway routing problem messages. We don't need to output messages that refer to ways that have been synthesised as the original ways should also generate messages. However, it wasn't doing the right thing - hopefully, it is now.

Commit: r1338: Reduce MAX_POINTS_IN_WAY to avoid routing problems.
by svn commit 01 Nov '09

01 Nov '09

Version 1338 was commited by markb on 2009-11-01 18:57:36 +0000 (Sun, 01 Nov 2009) Reduce MAX_POINTS_IN_WAY to avoid routing problems. This has been revised down to 80 (from 200) as it cures a routing issue with long ways. However, it's not been proven that the problem really is the number of points in the way, it could be some other limit that gets breached.

Hello, when I use the style branch for my routing layer, I get in one of my map tiles the following exception: java.lang.NullPointerException at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.Tags.put(Tags.java:68) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.Element.addTag(Element.java:40) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.actions.AddTagAction.perform(AddTagAct ion.java:64) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.ActionRule.resolveType(ActionRule.java :58) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.RuleHolder.resolveType(RuleHolder.java :54) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.RuleList.resolveType(RuleList.java:54) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.RuleSet.resolveType(RuleSet.java:172) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.osmstyle.StyledConverter.convertWay(StyledConve rter.java:253) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.xml.Osm5XmlHandler.endDocument(Osm5X mlHandler.java:473) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.AbstractSAXParser.endDocum ent(AbstractSAXParser.java:737) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.xinclude.XIncludeHandler.endDocume nt(XIncludeHandler.java:1119) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.XMLDocumentFragmentScannerImp l.scanDocument(XMLDocumentFragmentScannerImpl.java:515) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.XML11Configuration.parse(X ML11Configuration.java:807) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.XML11Configuration.parse(X ML11Configuration.java:737) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.XMLParser.parse(XMLParser. java:107) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.parsers.AbstractSAXParser.parse(Ab stractSAXParser.java:1205) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.SAXParserImpl$JAXPSAXParser.p arse(SAXParserImpl.java:522) at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse(SAXParser.java:395) at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse(SAXParser.java:198) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.xml.Osm5MapDataSource.load(Osm5MapDa taSource.java:80) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.loadFromFile(MapMaker.java:148) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.makeMap(MapMaker.java:56) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:186) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:184) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(FutureTask.java:303) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:138) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExec utor.java:885) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor .java:907) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619) Exiting - if you want to carry on regardless, use the --keep-going option Any idea about this, or shall a provide the osm file and the used style?

Hi, I'm using mkgmap very often and meanwhile it's working really good, but I found something, that some img files are broken. After integrating it into Mapsource, MS is crashing with an error xxxxxxxxxx.img has an broken record. How can I help you to find the problem? What do you nedd to find this issue? Error message, img file, my mkgmap commandline options. Something else? May I send this to the mailinglist? Regards, Marco

Can you set background colour in a TYP file?
by Mark Burton 01 Nov '09

Hi, Just playing around with TYP files and wondered if it is possible to change the "Garmin yellow" background to anything else using a TYP file? If not, is there any other way of doing that? Cheers, Mark
