Hi all, with r2448 I committed the removeShortArcs patch. It turned out that this change doesn't pass the unit tests. It is quite difficult to adapt the unit tests, and it is also quite different to move the removeShortArcsByMergingNodes() method down to the MapDetail or RoadNetWork class. So, finally, I thought again about the problem that I wanted to solve: Shapes were not smoothed properly by DouglasPeuckerFilter because removeShortArcsByMergingNodes() gives too many nodes the preserved attribute. So, finally, I think it is better to move the removeShortArcsByMergingNodes() method back to ElementSaver and fix the problem in MapBuilder by simply resetting the wrong preserved attributes for all coords of MapElements that are not roads. Attached is a patch for r2450 which implements this. removeShortArcs_v3.patch <http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/file/n5744907/removeShortArcs_v3.patch> Gerd -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/revert-most-of-removeShortArcs-patch-tp574490...
