[Merkaartor] Windows testing needed

2015-04-30 Thread Ladislav Laska
Hi!

I've compiled a Windows version, that needs some testing. It's based on
the latest -git version, and is 64bit only (unforunately, 32bit version
does not work yet).

You can download it here:

http://merkaartor.be/files/merkaartor-0.18.1-135-gc7c8c72.exe

If you have a 64bit windows, please, test it and let me know about bugs,
suggestions (even if you found none).

Also, if you feel like compiling from source, you can try msys2. But
only the 64bit debug version works (release requires patched Qt, due to
a bug that will be fixed in qt 5.4.2). The process is documented in
INSTALL.

 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:

Nice. So cool to see some activity in this project again.
