This is a followup to my prior post on Xastir Weather Alerts. There seems to have been an undocumented change in practice in how counties and zones or counties are identified in alerts. The comments in Xastir alert.c state that:
// the first 2 letters are the state or marine zone (1st field // in both the county and zone .dbf files) followed by an // underline char '_', the area type as above (C, Z, or A), // then a 3 digit numerical code derived from: The test case data in NWS-TEST.log also align with this statement. However, the uncompressed test case data FAILS under the current code. This was tested on v2.0.9 compiled from git. The test case data works if I edit the data to remove the underscore char '_' from the county/zone field. It would be incredibly useful if this change could be clearly explained by someone knowledgeable so that the comments and test cases could be properly updated. I have spent many hours trying to understand what is happening. Thank you. 73, Dan K2DLS _______________________________________________ Xastir-dev mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir-dev
