[mkgmap-dev] RoadDef patch

Thu Nov 6 11:34:43 GMT 2014

Hi Gerd,

In Steve’s stack trace it shows RoadMap is being used by a LinkedHashMap in TableA. A linked hash map maintains an ordered list of nodes, which is the same in every JDK version. You can set a breakpoint in CompareTo and run the SimpleRouteTest and see that it’s being used. 

The TableA addArc method is trying to only add unique arcs. They containsKey method at present will never return true, but it’s clear from the code that there are case where it should return true. My change results in a slight reduction of the NOD section, which seems to make sense. 

The sole purpose of the Hash seems to be preventing multiple, duplicate arcs from being created on the same RouteNode. 

In MapNode, RoadDef is constructed with the osm id of the way, but when constructed from the NETFileReader, the id is the record number, which will be unique. 

If every RoadDef should be unique, then one should not implement equals/hashCode/compareable, and instead use the default implementations from Object. However, one would then need to remove the LinkedHashMap from TableA and replace it with something like Array.

When RoadDefs are created in NETFileReader, a unique id is generated for each RoadDef.

First, it’s being used in a HashMap, which means both equals and hashCode need to be implemented. Second, the compareTo was using an unimplemented hashCode, which results in random sorting and inability to find two identical objects.
