Hello Gerd,
 
thank you for your reply. Regarding your surprising: you mean that the *.bnd 
files from the patched version can be used by the non-patched one? Hmm... 
shouldn't it behave like this? :) I have been thinking, it would just write 
additional boundaries with their attributes into the bnd files, but as the 
trunk version cannot use it, they are just ignored and don't disturb it. 
Anyway, for me it seems to work: after pre-compiling boundaries with the 
additional rule for osmfilter, I have access to the variables mkgmap:place and 
mkgmap:place_name which are set to meaningful values.
You pointed out an interesting thing: it didn't come to my mind, place polygons 
could overlap. But actually, two city/town/hamlet/... polygons should not 
intersect as an object cannot belong to two localities. Or am I wrong? Probably 
I was too idealistic :)
Update: In my region I found a place=town and a place=village that intersect, 
but it must be an error in the data.
Anyway, I will think once more about this all and will have a look at the 
utilities you mentioned.

Hi Maxim,

thanks for the patch. I was a bit surprised to notice that the
output produced by the patched version is still usable by the
trunk version.
I did not see any change to handle e.g. overlapping
place polygons.
Do you plan to change the utility programs
like BoundaryFile2Gpx, BoundaryCoverageUtil, and BoundaryDiff
so that one can verify the results?

Gerd

Subject: [mkgmap-dev] Support place polygons in preprocessed bounds

Hello everybody!

I've attached a patch that supports processing of place polygons in precompiled 
bounds and using of this information in the style file. See my earlier message: 
http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2015q1/022619.html[http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2015q1/022619.html].[http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2015q1/022619.html[http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2015q1/022619.html].]

You can use it like following (as example):

# Russia
mkgmap:country=RUS & mkgmap:city!=* & mkgmap:admin_level8=* { set 
mkgmap:city='${mkgmap:admin_level8}' }
mkgmap:country=RUS & mkgmap:city!=* & (mkgmap:place=city | mkgmap:place=town) { 
set mkgmap:city='${mkgmap:place_name}' }
mkgmap:country=RUS & mkgmap:city!=* & mkgmap:admin_level6=* { set 
mkgmap:city='${mkgmap:admin_level6}' }

To get this working, you have to create your own set of precompiled bounds with 
additional rule "type=multipolygon and place= and name=" for osmfilter and a 
run of BoundaryPreprocessor to set the variables mkgmap:place (attribute 
'place' from the multipolygon) and mkgmap:place_name (attribute 'name' from the 
multipolygon).

Cheers!

Max
