[mkgmap-dev] Option --housenumbers should imply --net

Sun Oct 20 08:14:16 BST 2019

Hi Ticker,

good question. MapSource shows the same dialog, no matter if NET data contains house numbers or not. Not sure if that is also the case for all devices, but I think my Oregon always asks for a housenumber when I search for an address. It simply ignores the input when the map was created without --housenumbers.
I guess that there is a flag somewhere in NET header which could change that behaviour. I'll have a closer look...

Hi Gerd

I don't understand what is meant by 'Street Search'. Is this just the
use of 'Address Search' where the House Number field is cleared?

Otherwise looks OK to me.
