Hi
road-name-pois
As I commented in the past, this option is still necessary for countries where streets/roads are named with the type of way before the name, that
OK, although I also understood that having so many POI's caused problems.
I heard about problems when using road-name-pois, specially from Felix, but I've been using this option for years and don't remember facing any problem I could relate to it, apart from the long time searches take.
least in Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian speaking countries to work this way (probably most latin languages), so until a predictive search method is implemented I vote for keeping this option alive.
This is something that I should work on then. I believe that I know how to make it work.
I would really thank you if you could do it.
If the above options have to be set in the style, would that mean a different style is necessary for each country? Could we use something like current inc/address file to define these options?
No it is 'can be' not 'have to be' set in the style. The command line options override any option that is set in the style. Sometimes it would make sense to set options in a style and sometimes it wouldn't - your choice.
OK, now it's clear
Being able to define options like drive-on-left for different countries would be great, but that is a separate enhancement. This would also be great for maps including left and right driving.
