Re: [Merkaartor] Windows testing needed
Found the problem! The platform plugin is not listed in the ldd/cygcheck output. I added it to the installer, and changed to the proper path. The build is the same as before. The download link is the same. http://merkaartor.be/files/merkaartor-0.18.1-135-gc7c8c72.exe On Sun, May 03, 2015 at 05:30:55PM +0200, Peter Conrad wrote: Ahoi Ladislav, I just gave it a try on my Win64 system. After installation it failed to start with the message: This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin windows. I had installed and used Merkaartor before (version 0.17something). I removed both and reinstalled the new one, same result... Btw, it should install to Program Files, not Program Files(x86) if it is 64bit. Could it be that this is the problem? Anyway, thanks for maintaining Merkaartor! I love it, although I didn't map very much in the past months. Regards from Germany, Peter On 30.04.2015 20:59, Ladislav Laska wrote: Hi! I've compiled a Windows version, that needs some testing.

Re: [Merkaartor] Windows testing needed
Does it matter if we point out shortcomings that had been there before? :-) I haven't done much mapping recently, but I truely liked Merkaartor best of all the available tools. Not at all! I migrated some issues from the old database, but a lof them were probably fixed (but not marked so), and some othere were missing important data (mostly pictures with the problem), I left them out. There is definitely a lot of stuff to do, and I would be glad to know what users want. I will look into implementing some simpler things, but the code needs some fixing before I'll start digging into the complex parts. There are still some bugs (mostly race conditions I think) lurking in the rendering, and the networking parts and OSM API are currently way too fragile. Could you point to a github issue and (/or) to a Digia issue tracker please? I like reading up on stuff like this. Sure, it's this one: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-39874 -- S pozdravem Ladislav Láska la...@kam.mff.cuni.cz Katedra Aplikované Matematiky, MFF UK tel.: +420 739 464 167 ___ Merkaartor mailing list Merkaartor@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/merkaartor
