Hi Gijs, > Source is at Gitorious: > https://gitorious.org/terragear-addons/terrageargui What a lovely start... thanks...
While it all went quite smoothly in Win32 (XP), did _NOT_ have as much luck in Ubuntu. In Ubuntu, it appears the Qt install did NOT add all the needed packages, or something... On the first build got LOTS of errors like say :- /home/geoff/fg/fg14/TerraGUI-build-desktop/ui_mainwindow.h:226: error: ‘class QTabWidget’ has no member named ‘setDocumentMode’ /home/geoff/fg/fg14/TerraGUI-build-desktop/ui_mainwindow.h:227: error: ‘class QTabWidget’ has no member named ‘setTabsClosable’ etc... This sort of suggests the 'wrong' version of widgets, or something... BUT no such trouble in XP (Win32). App built fine, so I headed out trying to build some Sydney (YSSY) scenery... Max Lat : -31 Min lon : 150 Max lon : 159 Min Lat : -40 The [Download shapefiles] correctly got me a mapserver zip with cs_default, cs_drycrop, cs_everygreenforest, cs_floodland, cs_grassland, cs_intermittentlake, cs_lake, cs_mixedforest, cs_sand, cs scrub and cs_urban (dbf/prj/shp/shx)... But at this stage there seems no offer to run 'shape_decode' to chop these into usable stuff... maybe later... The button [Download elevation files] (S40E150 - S31E159) worked, but it only put me on the usgs site, which I suppose is a better than nothing ;=)). But I had to 'remember' that I needed SRTM3/Australia, so I built a batch file to rock through the LAT/LON and used 'wget' to get the zip files, then unzipped to get the HGT set. Then the next tab [HGT Chop] did a fantastic job of setting up <some_root>/work/SRTM-30/<chunk>/<tile>/ <index>.fit.gz and arr.gz. Great stuff... must check what terrafit parameters were used, since this greatly influences the elevation mesh to be used... Then onto [Genapts] tab. A little surprised on the 'insistence' that apt.dat.gz be de-gzipped first. Surely that could be handled in Qt? But anyway [Generate airport] started ok, but I wish there was some stronger indicator that things were going ok... Yes, there is the log.txt to show the last command line item run... And yes, there is the log window, but at certain times the genapts process appeared 'stuck'... Wait, looking at the code, I see the genapts command runs 'genapts'. and waits until it ends, and only then outputs to the log window... So for some reason genapts only ran for ONE airport - YPEC.btg.gz!!! Why ONLY one? So I pushed it again, and again it only re-did the ONE... What's happening here??? Re-running the command line from log.txt manually, and this got ALL the airports in my chosen min-max region built... some 33 airports, after about an hour or so running... and ended with the HAPPY - [FINISHED CORRECTLY] So the question is more why when run inside tg-gui I only get ONE? Will leave that for another day ;=)) Moving onto the next tab [OGR Decode], and ok it seems it is here that my shape files are going to be dealt with... But nothing happens when I push [Retrieve shapefiles]! Where does it expect them to be? Try in 'Project directory', but nothing... AH HA, they have to be in '<Project directory>\data' ;=)) Somehow missed that, but ok... So now I get the above 'cs_....' list. It seems a good guess could be made at setting the 'Material' column from the mapserver names. Or EVEN get the mapserver to use the actual TG material names where possible, perhaps still with 'cs_' pre-pended! Got my 11 shapefiles aligned with a Material, so push the big button [Decode ...]... Some question in my mind as to where is the 'boundary' set? BUT YOW, TerrGUI.exe CRASHED, with the MS 'sorry for the inconvenience' dialog ;=(( I decide to NOT send the error to MS ;=)) And there is NO command line added the log.txt, so not sure what it was trying to 'run'... the log.txt ends with the two 'genapts' entries mentioned above... Reloaded, set all the Materials again, but it crashed again... just showing exited with code -1073741819... Also now note some other messages in here - namely 2 of - QProcess: Destroyed while process is still running. Is this something to do with the 'genapts' failure? Anyway, that is all I have time for today... As stated, really an EXCELLENT start. Not sure why the Qt compile trouble in Ubuntu, and why the [OSG Decode] tab, [Decode shapefile...] button crashed. Ah, quickly discovered more on the crash, by setting a Debug trap... I had forgot to put a value in the Line Width column, and thus it aborted on :- 500 QString lineWidth = ui->tblShapeAlign->item(i, 2)->text(); since there was NO text to get... Again why not fill in a 'default' line width value? I do not remember what a good, a reasonable value should be so I add '2' to each... After adding a number, the log.txt shows it ran 'ogr_decode' for each items, BUT nothing was output??? Why is that ogr_decode and not shape_decode??? Anyway *** MUST RUN *** today ;=() This is really a good start at removing the 'terror'...
