1. The README talks about "scons.py", but it is just called "scons".
2. In demo/c++ there is a Makefile, but the readme.txt gives a command
line to compile. Both don't work for me. One error can at least be
fixed by adding -I../../agg/include to the command line.
3. When compiling Mapnik an error is thrown because of a redefined type.
This was on an Intel 64Bit machine. Fixed by "typedef char byte" to
"typedef uint8_t byte" in include/mapnik/global.hpp. I am not sure
whether thats the right fix, though, I just guessed. :-)
4. include/mapnik/image_data.hpp needs
#include <mapnik/octree.hpp>
to compile
Example:
>>> from mapnik import *
>>> im = Image(200,200)
>> save_to_file('test.png',im) # Guess image type from file extension
>> save_to_file('test.png,'jpeg',im) # Explicitly save as JPEG
2. PostGIS plug-in - optional 'multiple_geometries' parameter to control how Multi* geometries built.
3. MarkersSymbolizer (work in progress) to render vector shapes (markers) alonh a path with collision detection.
- libxml2 support
- strict error handling while parsing XML map files
- implemented save_map()
- removed some duplicate defaults
- all symbolizers with icons share a common base class now
(FIXME : label_spacing is still, too slow!!)
2. Re-use some agg objects.
3. placement_finder cleanups!
4. Added support for 'building_symbolizer' - extruded polygons
+ raster and gdal input isn't tested. Not working currently...
+ *-input.so plugins created. Change loader in source or link plugin to correct place
+ use pkg-config uninstalled feature
-> define project root to PKG_CONFIG_PATH to use mapnik without installation
+ added various library checks
+ don't install fonts
+ don't use included AGG
-> check for a installed libagg
+ Added Makefile for c++ demo
+ don't build any python wrapper stuff
-> this follows if all other building works
+ added Anjuta file
-> not needed to build anything, but helps much if you use Anjuta
Shield symbolizer is now a subclass of text symbolizer.
Some small improvements to text rendering.
Fixed up placement finder for horizontal placement.
Cleaned up placement finder.
2. Pass resolution to bbox query
3. Use variant<int,double,string> as parameter value e.g in Python:
ds = Raster(file="/path/to/file",lox = 12312.4,.....)
Added extractor facility to work with mapnik::parameter (C++):
mapnik::parameters params;
params["parameter0"] = 123.456;
params["parameter1"] = "123.456"; // initialize with string extract double later
boost::optional<double> val0 = params.get<double>("parameter0");
if (val0)
{
std::cout << *val0;
}
// with default value. NOTE: there is no 'parameter2' in params
boost::optional<double> val2 = params.get<double>("parameter2",654.321);
std::cout << * val2;
//
4. Added Gdal factory method in __init__.py
ds = Gdal(file="/tmp/file.tiff")
