[mkgmap-dev] Minor documentation update

Fri Feb 14 06:00:29 GMT 2020

Hi Mike,

sorry for the delay. It seems you did not see my post http://gis.19327.n8.nabble.com/Need-help-with-build-scripts-tt5957298.html where I attached a modified version of the buildoptions program.

I've merged your changes with my patch, but omitted the part starting with "Input files may be of the following types: ".
The list is incomplete. I think the program understands various compressed formats like *.osm.bz2 or *.osm.gz or *.osm.zip.
Also missing is the polish format *.mp.   We have a file resources\help\en\inputs.
I think this would be the best place to put these details, but the link in file help is missing.

I am not sure where to put your program and what licence /copyright message to use. This patch places it in src\buildoptions\OptionsBuilder.java because that made it easier for me to use it.
Compared to my first patch I've modified the build script so that options is not automatically overwritten, instead one has to use
ant options-file
to "compile" it.

Gerd

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] Minor documentation update

Hi Gerd, now that my previous documentation patch has been committed, I have
noticed a couple of errors in it that I didn't notice because I didn't have
the means to compile it into the web pages. Please find attached a small
patch that corrects these errors and adds some information on the input
files, primarily to describe typ file compilation. I have also slightly
tweaked the code for generating the options file from options.txt, but as
the previous version does not appear to be in SVN, this has come across as a
complete file, rather than the change (which is just the deletion of the
hyphen character in 'if (line.startsWith(";-")) {').

Regards,
Mike
