[mkgmap-dev] Options

From Gerd Petermann gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com on Tue Apr 14 10:38:59 BST 2015

Hi all,

forgot to mention that I've updated the wiki.
Please check 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/dev/option-review

I plan to remove support for 
--coastlinefile 
--road-name-pois 
--ignore-builtin-relations

first.

I want to remove the code and print a warning when the option is used
like "option --coastlinefile is ignored, use --precomp-sea instead"
or "option --road-name-pois is ignored" when there is no replacement for the function.

Gerd

Hi Steve,

okay, I'll try to update the wiki first. Can't believe that it is already 
more than two years old :-O
