[mkgmap-dev] --index and --route

Wed Aug 17 10:15:39 BST 2011

the mdr file is created, but quite a bit smaller (roughly 30%). map 
installs fine in mapsource. when i send the map to the gps, the 
"creasting index" progress bar part is only a fraction of a second long 
(so i guess no index is created at all). search for adresses/crossings 
is then not active on the gps (oregon 450).

in addition to that:
i did some more testing on that, using a test map of mine that adds 
road_speed and road_class to the street's names, so for instance i'd get 
"street a (rc0-rs0)" for one section of a street and for another "street 
a (rc1-rs1)". both these streets sections are findable in the index. if 
i leave out road_speed and road_class, "street a" appears once in the 
index. i guess that the index creation pocess of  mapsource somehow 
overwrites streets with the same name/city combination, so only the 
first or last(?) processed section of a street is actually part of the 
index. this could be the reason for not finding crossings even if 
they're clearly there, because the crossing is in an overwritten section 
of the street.
