[mkgmap-dev] patch for improvements to echotags diagnostic messages

Mon Jan 2 05:59:21 GMT 2017

Hi Mike,

thanks, commited with r3742. I am not sure about the reporting of the URLs.
I think some log messages would be very missleading when only the original id is reported.
Some users extract the log warning messages and publish them as a kind of todo list,
so I think we should make sure that the log messages contain a hint that the reported 
object is a result of a split or clipping or something else which modifies the geometry.

I did not look at the code, maybe this is already done.

Gerd

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] patch for improvements to echotags diagnostic messages

HI Gerd, here is a patch to improve the diagnostics output by echotags when
mkgmap has created copies of data for internal processing. Currently the
original OSM Id is lost when the data is copied. This small patch retains
the original Id when elements are copied. There is no change to the map
output.

Please give this a try and commit if all is OK.

I also suggest that the toBrowseURL and getDebugName functions in
Element.java be changed to use originalId instead of id - does that seem
sensible to you?

Thanks,
Mike
