[mkgmap-dev] low-res-opt branch: error message from ShapeSplitter for self-intersecting multipolygon

Tue Jun 8 07:54:16 BST 2021

Hi Gerd

The shape is a figure-of-8 so shapesSplitter needs to give some error.

If this isn't an original OSM shape, it points to some problem with 
earlier processing, probably shape-merging. Although it might render 
(could be device dependent), further processing (eg overview merging) 
could come to grief.
