1. The first allows the user to add a <FileSource
name="foo">/home/bar/baz/</FileSource> to the beginning of the file
and then in any of the symbolisers you can say:
<FooSymboliser base="foo" name="bridge">
It it will refer to the file /home/bar/baz/bridge.
2. The second allows you to create Datasource templates at the top
level, which can be used later in the actual layers like so:
<Map>
<Datasource name="db">
<Paramaeter name="host">/tmp</Parameter>
</Datasource>
<Layer name="lay">
<Datasource base="db">
<Parameter name="table">points</Parameter>
</Datasource>
</Layer>
</Map>
And the host parameter will be used in the layer.
3. The third adds the "base" parameter to the raster and shape input
plugins. All it does is specify a path to prefix to the filename prior
to using it. Together with the above feature it allows things like:
<Map>
<Datasource name="shapes">
<Paramaeter name="base">/home/foo/shapes</Parameter>
</Datasource>
<Layer name="lay">
<Datasource base="shapes">
<Parameter name="file">places</Parameter>
</Datasource>
</Layer>
</Map>
And it will use the shapefile /home/foo/shapes/places
(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
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")
bool hit_test(double x, double y, double tol);
2. added image_view(unsigned x, unsigned y, unsigned width, unsigned height)
allowing to select region from image data e.g (in Python):
im = Image(2048,2048)
view = im.view(0,0,256,256)
save_to_file(filename,type, view)
3. changed envelope method to return vy value in datasource classes
4. features_at_point impl for shape and postgis plug-ins
f = feature(id);
f["name"] = "what is my name?";
boost.put(f,"area",123123.4325);
2. simplified and corrected value class and operators
3. updated input plug-ins to work with new features
4. add text_symbolizer (getting there:)
5. template version of agg_renderer
6. attribute_collector how accepts rules
(to collect attribute names for text labels)
