[mkgmap-dev] Explanation of the is_in function

Fri May 22 14:36:41 BST 2020

Hi Ticker,

the patched version still returns ON for a Coord which is not ON and thus doesn't work with my example.
The result doesn't depend on the position of the last point of the way as long as it is builds a nearly or exactly straight line with two nodes of the shape.

Your algorithm returns true for each such point, even when it is 100m away from any shape vertex.
See my new example where A,B and C build a straight line. Another node is very close to the edge but still returns  IN (OK)

Hi Gerd

Here is patch that prevents possible underflow when node is very close
to an almost horizontal or vertical line and incorrect results when
exactly on this line.
