Thanks for the patch. Can you post the exception you want to catch in your patch? The patch covers a problem which I think should be fixed at its origin. So a stacktrace would be very helpful.
Thanks! WanMil
The origin is either JVM6 or the benelux dataset, depending on how you look at it :) The complete trace and original mail message I send some time ago: mkgmap r2023 (and many older version) crash when running with --road-name-pois on file like in http://planet.openstreetmap.nl/benelux ++ /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/java -ea -Xmx4000m -jar ../mkgmap-r2023/mkgmap.jar --style-file=../aiostyles/basemap_style --tdbfile --gmapsupp --max-jobs --adjust-turn-headings --reduce-point-density=5 --merge-lines --route --remove-short-arcs=1 --link-pois-to-ways --family-id=4 --product-id=45 --family-name=OpenStreetmap --draw-priority=29 --add-pois-to-areas --road-name-pois 63240001.osm.pbf [...snip...] 63240075.osm.pbf ../aiostyles/basemap.TYP java.lang.IllegalStateException: Current state = FLUSHED, new state = CODING_END at java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder.throwIllegalStateException(CharsetEncoder.java:951) at java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder.encode(CharsetEncoder.java:537) at java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder.encode(CharsetEncoder.java:766) at uk.me.parabola.imgfmt.app.srt.Sort.createSortKey(Sort.java:96) at uk.me.parabola.imgfmt.app.srt.Sort.createSortKey(Sort.java:150) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.makeRoadNamePOIS(MapMaker.java:266) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.MapMaker.makeMap(MapMaker.java:64) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:222) at uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.main.Main$1.call(Main.java:219) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(FutureTask.java:303) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:138) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) Regards, Rutger.
