Changes in Thuban 1.2.0 |
2 |
|
======================= |
3 |
|
|
4 |
|
- Python <= 2.4 calls C extension modules with the set locale. |
5 |
|
This means those modules need to be robust against a locale |
6 |
|
where LC_NUMERIC is set in a way that the decimal_point might |
7 |
|
be a comma or something else. Problems are diagnosed |
8 |
|
at least with shapelib, proj and gdal. To cope with it we: |
9 |
|
|
10 |
|
+ Added a new option --setdecimalcommalocale to runtests.py so that |
11 |
|
all tests can be checked with a comma as decimal_point, if we |
12 |
|
can find such an LC_NUMERIC. We only try a few in test/localessupport.py. |
13 |
|
|
14 |
|
+ Fixed behaviour with proj by switching to LC_NUMERIC "C" before |
15 |
|
initialising the projection and afterward switch back. |
16 |
|
|
17 |
|
+ Added a workaround to internal shapelib and pyshapelib. |
18 |
|
(Bernhard Reiter) |
19 |
|
|
20 |
|
- Startup improved: We fail right away if the internal encoding could |
21 |
|
not be determined. In this case, try to set the LANGUAGE variable to |
22 |
|
one value and use no colon. |
23 |
|
If we startup you can see the internal encoding in the about dialog now. |
24 |
|
(Bernhard Reiter) |
25 |
|
|
26 |
|
- Support for pysqlite2. (Didrik Pinte) |
27 |
|
|
28 |
|
- Added packagin directory, which already has an example how |
29 |
|
to load all extensions on windows. (Didrik Pinte) |
30 |
|
|
31 |
|
- Updated code to support new style wxPython 2.6 imports. So |
32 |
|
you need at least wyPython 2.6 . (Didrik Pinte) |
33 |
|
|
34 |
|
- New Classification "Pattern": Classify text attributes by regexp. |
35 |
|
(Frank Koormann) |
36 |
|
|
37 |
|
- New or Improved Extensions: |
38 |
|
|
39 |
|
+ Improved svxexport extension 1.0.1 (Bernhard Reiter) |
40 |
|
|
41 |
|
* Fixed ARC layer writing: No filling is done. |
42 |
|
You could actually get polylines with filling in between, |
43 |
|
when the classification for the lines had a fill color. |
44 |
|
E.g. this happens when you generate a classification from a ramp. |
45 |
|
|
46 |
|
* Fixed label export. |
47 |
|
|
48 |
|
+ New export_shapefile extension (Jan-Oliver Wagner) |
49 |
|
Available from the experimental menu. |
50 |
|
|
51 |
|
- Known Problems with Extension OGR: |
52 |
|
- Two tests fail (probably because of an ogr/shapelib problem.) |
53 |
|
https://wald.intevation.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=91 |
54 |
|
- Is slower than native Shapefile support. |
55 |
|
- Classification might not work. |
56 |
|

|
Changes in Thuban 1.1.0 |
59 |
|
======================= |
60 |
|
|
61 |
|
- Thuban rembers directories in file selection dialogs during a thuban |
62 |
|
session |
63 |
|
|
64 |
|
- Add some support for wxPython 2.5 and 2.6. Thuban is still |
65 |
|
compatible with wxPython 2.4. |
66 |
|
|
67 |
|
- Change the way thuban deals with non-ascii text. The internal |
68 |
|
representation is now the user's default encoding. Thuban works a |
69 |
|
bit better with a unicode build of wxPython but there are still |
70 |
|
problems. (Bernhard Herzog) |
71 |
|
|
72 |
|
- Various raster data improvements. Among other things, translucent |
73 |
|
images are now supported on a sufficiently recent wxWidgets (2.6). |
74 |
|
Also, only the part of the window actually covered by the image is |
75 |
|
drawn. (Jonathan Coles) |
76 |
|
|
77 |
|
- Improved PostGIS support (Bernhard Herzog): |
78 |
|
|
79 |
|
- support tables with multiple geometry columns. The user can |
80 |
|
select which one to use |
81 |
|
|
82 |
|
- support tables with srids |
83 |
|
|
84 |
|
- tables don't have to have a column named "gid" anymore. The user |
85 |
|
can select the column to use for ids |
86 |
|
|
87 |
|
- PostgreSQL views are supported too |
88 |
|
|
89 |
|
- support LINESTRING geometries |
90 |
|
|
91 |
|
- support more PostgreSQL versions. 7.4 works now. |
92 |
|
|
93 |
|
- Added support for sizable points (Jan-Oliver Wagner) |
94 |
|
|
95 |
|
- When loading a (moved) session where shapefiles cannot be found, ask |
96 |
|
the user (Frank Koormann) |
97 |
|
|
98 |
|
- The middle mouse button can be used for panning now (Russell Nelson) |
99 |
|
|
100 |
|
- Give a warning when the projection selected for a layer is probably |
101 |
|
wrong (Russell Nelson) |
102 |
|
|
103 |
|
- Updated shapelib |
104 |
|
|
105 |
|
- New or improved extensions: |
106 |
|
|
107 |
|
- A new extension which exports a map as SVG |
108 |
|
(Markus Rechtien, Bernhard Reiter) |
109 |
|
|
110 |
|
- Improved WMS extension (Martin Schulze) |
111 |
|
|
112 |
|
- New Extension to dump bounding boxes of all shapes of the selected |
113 |
|
layer (Frank Koormann) |
114 |
|
|
115 |
|
- New extension: umn_mapserver (Jan Sch�ngel) |
116 |
|
|
117 |
|
- New extension: OGR (Nina H�ffmeyer) |
118 |
|
|
119 |
|
- New Extension: mouseposition. Tool to collect mouse click positions |
120 |
|
(map coordinates) in a dialog. (Frank Koormann) |
121 |
|
|
122 |
|
- Documentation: |
123 |
|
|
124 |
|
- Add some documentation of the internals of Thuban. |
125 |
|
See Doc/technotes/ |
126 |
|
|
127 |
|
- The thuban manual has been partly translated to German |
128 |
|
(Jan-Oliver Wagner) |
129 |
|
|
130 |
|
- Updated translations: |
131 |
|
Russian (Alex Shevlakov) |
132 |
|
|
133 |
|
- New translations: |
134 |
|
Brazilian Portuguese (Eduardo Patto Kanegae)xb |
135 |
|
Hungarian (Norbert Solymosi) |

Changes in Thuban 1.0.0 |
139 |
|
======================= |
140 |
|
|
141 |
|
- Updated translations: |
142 |
|
|
143 |
|
Italian by Maurizio Napolitano |
144 |
|
Spanish and French by Daniel Calvelo Aros |
145 |
|
Russian by Alex Shevlakov |
146 |
|
|
147 |
|
- some minor bug fixes |
148 |
|
|
149 |
|
|
150 |
|
Changes in Thuban 1.0rc1 |
151 |
|
======================== |
152 |
|
|
153 |
|
- Redering improvements |
154 |
|
|
155 |
|
Rendering the map in the main window does not freeze Thuban |
156 |
|
completely anymore. While the rendering occurs the window is updated |
157 |
|
regularly to show the progress and you can interact with the window |
158 |
|
and thuban in general even when the rendering is not complete yet |
159 |
|
|
160 |
|
The map display is also faster in many cases now, especially when |
161 |
|
doing classifictions. |
162 |
|
|
163 |
|
The renderes have a mechanism to define how new layer classes defined |
164 |
|
in extensions can be rendered (see the new wms extension for an |
165 |
|
example) |
166 |
|
|
167 |
|
- Added a few extensions in the Extensions sub-directory. Most of them |
168 |
|
are experimental to varying extents. Note that the binary packages |
169 |
|
might not contain all of these extensions. |
170 |
|
|
171 |
|
- gns2shp |
172 |
|
|
173 |
|
Convert GNS (GEOnet Names Server) files to shapefiles. See |
174 |
|
Extensions/gns2shp/gns2shp.py for more information |
175 |
|
|
176 |
|
- wms |
177 |
|
|
178 |
|
Use thuban as WMS client. See Extensions/wms/wms.py for more |
179 |
|
information |
180 |
|
|
181 |
|
- importAPR |
182 |
|
|
183 |
|
Import a ArcView project file (.apr) and convert it to Thuban. |
184 |
|
|
185 |
|
- profiling |
186 |
|
|
187 |
|
For developers: perfomance measurement for the rendering code. |
188 |
|
See Extensions/profiling/profiling.py for details. |
189 |
|
|
190 |
|
- drawshape |
191 |
|
|
192 |
|
This is a *very experimental* and potentially *dangerous* extension |
193 |
|
to add shapes to a shapefile. Be careful with it as it may lead to |
194 |
|
data loss. For more information, see Extensions/drawshape/README |
195 |
|
|
196 |
|
- A new command line option --enable-attribute-editing, which when |
197 |
|
given turns on editing of attribute values in the identify view. It |
198 |
|
only works on layers whose attribute data is stored in DBF files. |
199 |
|
This experimental and may lead to data loss, so be careful when using |
200 |
|
it. |
201 |
|
|
202 |
|
- EPSG projections |
203 |
|
|
204 |
|
Thuban now comes with two .proj files containing EPSG projections |
205 |
|
(epsg.proj and epsg-deprecated.proj in Resources/Projections/). These |
206 |
|
projections can be shown in the dialog with the new check boxes under |
207 |
|
"Show EPSG". |
208 |
|
|
209 |
|
- Context menu in the legend window |
210 |
|
|
211 |
|
The legend window now has a context menu for most of the layer |
212 |
|
commands |
213 |
|
|
214 |
|
- Localization updates |
215 |
|
|
216 |
|
The localization is now done with wxWindow's localization support and |
217 |
|
thus deals automatically with character encoding transformations and |
218 |
|
the standard dialogs are also translated properly if the wxWindows |
219 |
|
.mo files are installed |
220 |
|
|
221 |
|
Updated translations for French and Spanish contributed by Daniel |
222 |
|
Calvelo. Updated German translation |
223 |
|
|
224 |
|
- PostGIS improvements |
225 |
|
|
226 |
|
- Quote table and columns names properly. |
227 |
|
|
228 |
|
- The dialog deals better with duplicate connections (e.g. trying to |
229 |
|
create a new connection when there already is a connection for the |
230 |
|
same database) |
231 |
|
|
232 |
|
- Files written with the Windows version of Thuban can now be read by |
233 |
|
the unix version. The other way round was already possible. |
234 |
|
|
235 |
|
- The shapefile handling code now uses shapelib 1.2.10 |
236 |
|
|
237 |
|
- Thuban should work without problems and warnings with Python 2.3 now. |
