[mkgmap-dev] Contributing to mkgmap

Sat Oct 9 08:44:22 BST 2021

Hello,

I am looking to contribute a feature to mkgamp - see other post on DEM 
tile naming - but I have a few questions.

First of all I didn't really find a description on how to contribute 
properly - provided I manage to get it implemented. :-) What did I miss 
there?

Second, I am at a stage where I managed to sucessfully build mkgmap 
locally and I would like to start it in IntelliJ a debugging session, 
using the included IntelliJ configuration.
This fails. mkgmap does not recognize any command line options as they 
are loaded from a resource file with 
Main.class.getResourceAsStream("/help/en/options")).

Naturally this fails when running it in the IDE as the function wants to 
load from a .jar file.

How do you start a debug session in the IDE properly?

bye,
	Nop
