[mkgmap-dev] Commit: r1377: Limit length of lines to work around problems when subdividing long lines.

Version 1377 was commited by markb on 2009-11-11 21:25:03 +0000 (Wed, 11 Nov 2009) Limit length of lines to work around problems when subdividing long lines. This is not the ideal solution but works as an interim fix until the real problem is solved. The fundamental problem appears to be that very long lines (national boundaries, etc.) can be segmented such that some of the line's segments fall outside the map area that the line has been assigned to. By chopping the line into segments before the line is assigned to a subdivision, the problem is avoided. This can't be done for polygons and so very large polygons can still yield errors.
