[mkgmap-dev] creating a fool-proof mapsource installer across different versions

From Marco Certelli marco_certelli at yahoo.it on Wed May 27 11:02:55 BST 2009

Well, try before enjoing. Actually I take a slighly different approach to mapsoruce install. I use mkgmap with something like:

--overview-mapname=40000000 --mapname=40000001

and then in the registry
...
"BMAP"="C:\\OSM\\40000000.img"
"TDB"="C:\\OSM\\40000000.tdb"
...

Try it also.

Have a nice day, Marco.
