Ah hem, sorry? This is largely exagerated. Quoting verbatim from my comments: - "So this is an API change. It will break all existing implementations of GTRenderer, in particular afaik the patch does not care for the shapefile renderer. " Not saying no to the change, just noting it's an API change that will make one of the modules not build anymore. - "I also see that the patch removes some c coding style bits with more java like one, but I'm unsure if all of them are actually equivalent... Maybe it is equivalent but after 10 hours of work I'm too tired to tell :-p Allow me some more time to look into the patch. Maybe next time split it into two, code cleanups in one patch, api changes in the other. " How any of this equates to me _assuming_ it will break everything? I want to get the patch applied, just want to double check it since the rendering subsystem is poorly tested (so trying to compensate lack of testing with review).
