[mkgmap-dev] Exit_hint and Dest_hint result is not what I was expecting

Sun Mar 20 23:12:21 GMT 2016

Now we are getting somewhere:

I ran this code:

# build destination hint
dest_hint=* { delete dest_hint }
highway=* & mkgmap:dest_hint=true { echo 'BEFORE
destination=${destination}';
set destination:ref = '${destination:ref|subst:South=> S|subst:North=>
N|subst:East=> E|subst:West=> W|subst:I =>I-|subst:M =>M-|subst:US =>US-}';
set destination = '${destination|subst:/=>,}';
set destination:street = '${destination:street|subst:;=>,|subst: Road=>
Rd|subst: Street=> St|subst: Avenue=> Ave|subst: Mile=> Mi|subst:
Boulevard=> Blvd|subst: Parkway=> Pkwy|subst: Highway=> Hwy|subst:
Southwest=> SW|subst: Northwest=> NW|subst: Southeast=> SE|subst:
Northeast=> NE}';
echo 'AFTER destination=${destination}';
}

And got this response from mkgmap:

If you look at the OSM data, there IS NO DESTINATION tag, so why is "Beck
Road" being set for variable $[destination] ??
