[mkgmap-dev] Problem with compiling TYP containing Cyrillic characters (mkgmap r2673)

Tue Oct 8 10:55:49 BST 2013

Gents,

I have a properly translated source Text file (UTF-8 with BOM) for 
Russian containing, obviously, cyrillic characters. It contains 
definitions like (for example):

    [_line]
    Type=0x10103
    UseOrientation=Y
    LineWidth=2
    Xpm="0 0 1 0"
    "1 c #99CCCC"
    String1=0x19,?????/???
    ExtendedLabels=Y
    FontStyle=NoLabel (invisible)
    CustomColor=No
    [end]

Complete file can be downloaded at 
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40846569/freizeit.zip

Unfortunately mkgmap doesn't like it and fails to compile such a text 
file into a binary TYP file:

    java -Xmx1536M -jar
    P:/Freizeitkarte/develop/fzk-mde-garmin.git/Freizeitkarte-Entwicklung/tools/mkgmap/mkgmap.jar
    --max-jobs=2 --code-page=1251 --product-id=1
    --family-id=6442 freizeit.txt

    Exiting - if you want to carry on regardless, use the --keep-going
    option

Exact the same happens if I try to compile it with the option 
--code-page=65001 (for unicode).

Any clue ? is this an enduser problem or a mkgmap problem ?

Thanks for the help.
