+         (JoinDialog.OnJoin): Consider outer join check box.
+-05-22  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/join.py (JoinDialog.OnJoin): Use exc_info in a

+         former framework. Renamed Table1/Table2 to LeftTable/RightTable
+         in all occurences.
+         * Thuban/Model/transientdb.py (TransientJoinedTable.__doc__):
+         Typo fixed.
+-05-22  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

+         (TestTransientTable.test_transient_joined_table)
+         (TestTransientTable.test_transient_table): Add test for the Title
+         methods
+         * test/test_memory_table.py (TestMemoryTable.test_title): New.

+         layer at top/bottom of layer stack.
+         * Resources/Bitmaps/top_layer.xpm: New button icon.
+         * Resources/Bitmaps/bottom_layer.xpm: New button icon.

+         methods for filename and type
+         (ShapefileStore.Dependencies): New. Implement the dependencies
+         interface
+         (DerivedShapeStore): New class to replace SimpleStore. The main
+         difference to SimpleStore is that it depends not on a shapefile

+         better
+         (SimpleStore.__init__): Add deprecation warning.

+         Test case for the AddTable method
+-05-22  Frank Koormann  <[email protected]>
+         UI polishing updates: Place main buttons (OK, Cancel, etc) in the
+         lower right corner, center labels for selections, initialize controls
+         in reasonable order for keyboard navigation.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame.__init__, ProjFrame.__doLayout)
+         (ProjFrame.__DoOnProjAvail): Determine position of current projection

+         Button to 'Export'. Center Buttons in Selection Box, set Focus to
+         Grid.
+         (LayerTableFrame.OnKeyDown()): New, bound to the grid with EVT_KEY_DOWN,
+         changes focus to the Selection when pressing "Alt-S".
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py (LegendTree.__SetVisibilityStyle): Only gray out
+         the text if not visible. The italic font sometimes exceeds the
+         rendering area.

+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py (DockFrame): Rename references to _OnClose
+         to OnClose so that Thuban closes correctly.

+         DockFrame.OnClose, not DockFrame._OnClose.
+-05-21  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classgen.py (ClassGenerator.GenQuantiles): Remove
+         references to 'inf' and use new Range __init__ to pass floats
+         directly rather than converting them to strings first.
+         Fixes RTBug #1876.
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py (ClassGroupRange.SetRange):
+         Use new Range ___init__ to pass floats.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (RasterLayer.__init__): Test if the
+         filename is a valid image file. Throw IOError otherwise.
+         * Thuban/Model/range.py: Brought over new Range from SciParam that
+         is immutable and has an __init__ which can accept floats.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.AddLayer): Move OpenShapefile
+         into try block. AddLayer doesn't throw any exceptions anymore.
+         (MainWindow.AddRasterLayer): Move constructor of RasterLayer into

+         and off so as to prevent excessive messages.
+         (LayerTableFrame.OnQuery): Use TableGrid.ToggleEventListeners
+         to suppress excessive messages when selecting many rows.
+         Fixes RTBug #1880.
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py: Added checks against if scale == 0. This
+         is a serious problem that can occur when an image without
+         geo data is loading and causes the map projection bounds to
+         go to infinity. Right now, the solution is to simply try
+         to recover.
+         * extensions/thuban/cpl_mfile.cpp (MFILEClose): Make sure
+         to set the MFILEReceiver attributes even if the data is NULL.
+         * extensions/thuban/gdalwarp.cpp: Improved the error handling
+         and passed GDAL messages back up to the Python layer. Also
+         tried to fix some memory leaks that were present in the original
+         utility but didn't matter because the program aborted.
+         * test/test_range.py: Copied over tests from SciParam. Removed
+         tests against importing. Fixes RTBug #1867.
+-05-21  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/test_load.py: Remove unused imports and restructure the
+         test code
+         (LoadSessionTest): Split into one class for each test and turn
+         LoadSessionTest itself into the base class for all such session
+         tests.
+         (ClassificationTest): New base class for load tests that test
+         classifications
+         (TestSingleLayer, TestLayerVisibility, TestClassification)
+         (TestLabels, TestLayerProjection, TestRasterLayer): New classes
+         for the individual tests
+         * test/support.py (FileLoadTestCase.filename): New base class for
+         file loading tests
+-05-21  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Resources/Projections/defaults.proj: Renamed 'Universal Transverse
+         Mercator' to 'UTM Zone 32' as a more convenient example.
+         Added 'Gauss Krueger Zone 6'.
+         * Data/iceland_sample_raster.thuban: political polygon now
+         filled transparent to have the raster image visible at once.
+-05-21  Frank Koormann  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow): Renamed _OnClose() back to
+         OnClose() to keep in sync with extensions. Internally Thuban
+         still uses "underscored" names.
+-05-20  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         This puts back Raster layer support. These layers support projections
+         through the GDAL library. Currently, the CVS version is being used.
+         There are no Debian packages available although this may change soon.
+         A GDAL driver was extended to support writing to memory rather to
+         files.
+         There is still some work that needs to be done, such as some error
+         handling when loading invalid images or when there is a problem
+         projecting the image. This putback simply checks in the majority
+         of the work.
+         * setup.py: Add gdalwarp library extension.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (BaseLayer.HasClassification): New.
+         Defaults to False, but can be overridden by subclasses if they
+         support classification.
+         (RasterLayer): New. Defines a new layer that represents an
+         image.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (SessionLoader.__init__): Add rasterlayer
+         tag handler.
+         (SessionLoader.start_layer): Encode the filename.
+         (SessionLoader.start_rasterlayer, SessionLoader.end_rasterlayer):
+         New. Supports reading a rasterlayer tag.
+         * Thuban/Model/map.py (Map.BoundingBox): Fix typo in comment.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (XMLWriter.encode): Don't assume that we
+         get a string in Latin1. If we get such as string convert it to
+         unicode first, otherwise leave if alone before encoding.
+         (SessionSaver.write_layer): Add support for writing both Layers
+         and RasterLayers.
+         * Thuban/Model/transientdb.py (AutoTransientTable.SimpleQuery):
+         The right argument may not be a string, it could also be a Column.
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.CreateMainWindow):
+         Make initial window size 600x400. Fixes RTBug #1872.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__init__): Rearrange how
+         the dialog is constructed so that we can support layers that
+         do not have classifications.
+         (Classifier._OnTry): Only build a classification if the layer
+         supports one.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py: Change all checks that a layer is an
+         instance of Layer into checks against BaseLayer.
+         (LegendTree.__FillTreeLayer): Only add children to a branch if
+         the layer supports classification.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.NewSession,
+         MainWindow.OpenSession): Don't proceed with an action if the
+         user chooses Cancel when they are asked to save changes.
+         (MainWindow.AddRasterLayer): New. Open a dialog to allow the
+         user to select an image file. Create a new RasterLayer and add
+         it to the map.
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (MapRenderer.render_map): Add support
+         for rendering RasterLayer layers.
+         (MapRenderer.draw_raster_layer): Actually method that calls
+         the GDALWarp python wrapper and constructs an image from the
+         data returned.
+         * Thuban/UI/tableview.py (LayerTableFrame.__init__): Change the
+         Choices symbols to match those used in the table query method.
+         Replace deprecated method calls on table with new method names.
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py (MapCanvas.set_view_transform): Try to limit
+         how small the scale can get. This still needs more testing.
+         * extensions/thuban/bmpdataset.cpp: New, but copied from GDAL.
+         Provides a driver to output in .bmp format.
+         * extensions/thuban/cpl_mfile.cpp, extensions/thuban/cpl_mfile.h:
+         New. Provides IO routines which write to memory, rather than a file.
+         * extensions/thuban/gdalwarp.cpp: New, but basically a direct copy
+         of the gdalwarp utility provided in GDAL. Added function calls
+         that can be accessed from python.
+         * Data/iceland_sample_raster.thuban: New. Sample file that uses
+         a raster layer.
+         * Data/iceland/island.tfw, Data/iceland/island.tif: New. Raster
+         layer image data.
+         * Doc/thuban.dtd: Added rasterlayer attribute definition.
+         * test/test_layer.py, test/test_load.py, test/test_save.py: Added
+         tests associated with the raster layer code.
+         * test/test_transientdb.py
+         (TestTransientTable.test_auto_transient_table_query): Added a test
+         for using a Column object as the "right" parameter to a query.
+-05-19  Frank Koormann  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/version.py (get_changelog_date):
+         Catch exceptions if ChangeLog does not exist.
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py (MapCanvas.Export): Bugfix
+-05-19  Frank Koormann  <[email protected]>

+         * Thuban/version.py: New, version information for Thuban: Last
+         modification date and last ChangeLog entry date.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.About()): Extended version
+         information: Display Thuban, wxPython and Python version.
+-05-16  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py: Remove some unused imports including the
+         __future__ import for nested_scopes as Thuban relies on Python 2.2
+         now.
+         (XMLWriter.encode): Remove the special case for a None argument.
+         In the saver encode is always called with a string argument.
+-05-16  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/__init__.py: Remove the work-around for the locale bug
+         in wxPython (at least when usinvg wxGTK) prior to 2.4. The symptom
+         of the bug was that e.g. float("1.2") would fail. Thuban now
+         requires 2.4.x.
+-05-16  Frank Koormann   <[email protected]>
+         Printing enhancement and WMF export (under Win32)
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (ExportRenderer): New, derived from
+         ScreenRenderer. Renders Map, Legend and Scalebar for export.

+         Also, since the points are unprojected we need to projected them.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py (LegendTree.MoveCurrentItemUp,
+         LegendTree.MoveCurrentItemDown): If the layer or any of the layer's
+         groups are selected, move the layer up/down. Fixes RTbug #1833.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: Move menu item map_rename up.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame._OnSave): Add missing
+         parameter in call to SetClientData.
+         (GeoPanel): Add support for selecting the units that the
+         source data is in (Radians or Degrees).
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (MapRenderer.draw_shape_layer): Optimize
+         the rendering loop by reducing the number of if's, removing the
+         unnecessary try/except block, and checking if the old group
+         is the same as the new one (which happens a lot if there is
+         no classification, or lots of shapes are in the same group).
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py (MapCanvas.OnPaint): Add a try/except block
+         around the redraw routine to try to catch problems that the user
+         may create by selecting invalid projections for the data set and
+         map. Clears the display if there are any problems and prints the
+         error.
+         (MapCanvas.do_redraw): Use DC.Clear() instead of drawing a filled
+         rectangle.
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (project_point): First invert the
+         supplied point (which should be in projected coordinates) using
+         the layer's projection and then project the point using the
+         map's projection.
+         (project_points): Use project_point() to project each point.
+-04-30  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer.SetShapeStore): Fixed a bug:
+         don't set the Classification to None if the classfication field
+         is None (ie only a DEFAULT).
+-04-30  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py: Fix some typos.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.identify_view_on_demand): Do

+         is active and dialog had been closed)
+-04-30  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/transientdb.py (TransientTableBase.__init__): New
+         instance variable read_record_last_result

+-04-29  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/session.py (Session.Destroy): Explicitly close the
+         transient DB if it exists to make sure it doesn't leave a journal
+         file in the temp directory.
+         * Thuban/Model/transientdb.py (TransientDatabase.close): Set
+         self.conn to None after closing the connection to make sure it's
+         not closed twice
+-04-29  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         Add a visible parameter in the layer XML tag. The default value is

+         is loaded correctly.
+         * test/test_save.py (SaveSessionTest.testSingleLayer): Add test
+         for saving an invisible layer.
+-04-29  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.SetMap): Look up the

+         supplied to SetMap(). Fixes RTbug #1770.
+-04-29  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Next step of table implementation. Introduce a transient database
+         using SQLite that some of the data is copied to on demand. This
+         allows us to do joins and other operations that require an index
+         for good performance with reasonable efficiency. Thuban now needs
+         SQLite 2.8.0 and pysqlite 0.4.1. Older versions may work but I
+         haven't tested that.
+         * Thuban/Model/transientdb.py: New. Transient database
+         implementation.
+         * test/test_transientdb.py: New. Tests for the transient DB
+         classes.
+         * Thuban/Model/session.py (AutoRemoveFile, AutoRemoveDir): New
+         classes to help automatically remove temporary files and
+         directories.
+         (Session.__init__): New instance variables temp_dir for the
+         temporary directory and transient_db for the SQLite database
+         (Session.temp_directory): New. Create a temporary directory if not
+         yet done and return its name. Use AutoRemoveDir to have it
+         automatically deleted
+         (Session.TransientDB): Instantiate the transient database if not
+         done yet and return it.
+         * Thuban/Model/data.py (ShapefileStore.__init__): Use an
+         AutoTransientTable so that data is copied to the transient DB on
+         demand.
+         (SimpleStore): New class that simply combines a table and a
+         shapefile
+         * Thuban/Model/table.py (Table, DBFTable): Rename Table into
+         DBFTable and update its doc-string to reflect the fact that this
+         is only the table interface to a DBF file. Table is now an alias
+         for DBFTable for temporary backwards compatibility.
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.OnExit): Make sure
+         the last reference to the session goes away so that the temporary
+         files are removed properly.
+         * test/test_load.py (LoadSessionTest.tearDown): Remove the
+         reference to the session to make sure the temporary files are
+         removed.
+-04-29  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (XMLReader.__init__, XMLReader.read): Turn
+         the __parser instance variable into a normal local variable in
+         read. It's only used there and read will never be called more than
+         once. Plus it introduces a reference cycle that keeps can keep the
+         session object alive for a long time.
+-04-29  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (Projection): Removed Set*() methods to make
+         Projection an immutable item. Fixes RTbug #1825.
+         (Projection.__init__): Initialize instance variables here.
+         (ProjFile.Replace): New. Replace the given projection object with
+         the new projection object. This solves the problem of needing the
+         mutator Projection.SetProjection() in the ProjFrame class and
+         allows a projection to change parameters without changing its
+         location in the file.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.SaveSessionAs): Dialog should
+         be of type wxSAVE and should verify overwriting a file.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame._OnSave): Use the new
+         ProjFile.Replace() method instead of the mutator
+         Projection.SetProjection(). Also requires that we reassign the
+         client data to the new projection.
+         * test/test_proj.py (TestProjection.test): Test GetName() and
+         GetAllParameters()
+         (TestProjFile.test): Remove tests for Set*() methods. Add tests
+         for Replace().
+-04-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>

+         test to verify layer projections are saved correctly.
+-04-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (Projection.SetName): Set the name
+         to "Unknown" if name is None.
+         (Projection.SetAllParameters): New. Set the projection's
+         parameter list to the one supplied.
+         (Projection.SetProjection): New. Set the projection's
+         properties to those of the supplied Projection.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.MapProjection): Set
+         the dialog title to include the map's title.
+         (MainWindow.LayerProjection): Set the dialog title to include
+         the layer's title.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame.__ShowError): Consolidate
+         error dialogs into a single method call.
+         (ProjFrame.__VerifyButtons): Add more states to check.
+         (ProjFrame.__GetProjection): Return the current state of an
+         edited projection or None.
+         (ProjFrame.__FillAvailList): Remove checks for states that
+         shouldn't exist.
+         (ProjFrame._OnNew): Clear all selected items and supply
+         a projection panel if necessary.
+         * test/test_proj.py (TestProjFile.test): Add tests for
+         ProjFile.SetAllParameters, ProjFile.SetProjection,
+         ProjFile.SetName.
+-04-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame.__FillAvailList): Now
+         takes an optional argument to select the current projection.
+         This does not guarantee that the item is visible due to
+         limited wxWindows functionality. Fixes RTBug #1821.
+-04-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (SessionLoader.start_projection): Remember
+         the projection name and use it when constructing the Projection
+         object.
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (Projection.__init__): Change the default
+         value for 'name' to None and then test if name is equal to None
+         in the body of the constructor. This way the caller doesn't have to
+         know what the default value should be. Namely, useful in load.py
+         where we have to pick a default value if the 'name' parameter
+         doesn't exist in the XML file.
+         * test/test_load.py (LoadSessionTest.testLayerProjection): New.
+         Tests a file where a layer has a projection.
+-04-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer.TreeInfo): Add an item to the
+         tree for projection information.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (XMLReader.GetFilename): Renamed from
+         XMLReader.GetFileName.
+         (SessionLoader): Added support for loading projection tags that
+         appear inside a layer.
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (ProjFile): Document the class. Move
+         back to using a list because the order of the projections in
+         the file is important to maintain. Fixes RTbug #1817.
+         * Thuban/Model/resource.py: Rename calls to ProjFile.GetFileName
+         to ProjFile.GetFilename.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (SessionSaver.write_layer): Save projection
+         information.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame._OnAddToList): Renamed from
+         ProjFrame._OnSaveAs. Removed old dead code from previous
+         implementation.
+         (ProjFrame._OnExport): Add support for exporting more than one
+         projection to a single file.
+         (ProjFrame.__FillAvailList): use string formatting (% operator)
+         to build strings that are (partly) translated. Fixes RTbug #1818.
+         * test/test_proj.py (TestProjFile.test): New. Tests the base ProjFile
+         class.
+-04-24  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * po/es.po: Updated Spanish translation by Daniel Calvelo Aros
+         * po/fr.po: New. French translation by Daniel Calvelo Aros

+-04-24  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer.GetProjection): New. Needed to
+         implement the interface that the ProjFrame dialog expects.
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (Projection.SetName): New. Allows the
+         name of the projection to be changed.
+         (ProjFile): Use a dictionary instead of a list so that removing
+         projections is easier and we are sure about uniqueness.
+         (ProjFile.Remove): Remove the given projection object.
+         * Thuban/Model/resource.py (GetSystemProjFiles, GetUserProjFiles):
+         Return a list with only one projection file instead of searching for
+         any projection file. This simplifies many things if the user can
+         only have one system file and one user file.
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py: Change all references to
+         genCombo to genChoice.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: Add a Projection option under the
+         layer menu.
+         (MainWindow.LayerProjection): New. Open up a projection window
+         for a layer.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py: Large changes to how the dialog is
+         laid out. Use three panels instead of one. One for the list of
+         projections, one for the edit controls, and one for the buttons.
+         Fixed resizing problems so that the dialog resizes correctly
+         when the projection panel changes. Added import/export, save, and
+         new buttons/functionality.
+-04-24  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

+         (open_shapefile): Removed. No longer needed with the shape store.
+         (Layer.SetShapeStore, Layer.ShapeStore): New methods to set and

+         (TestMapWithContents.tearDown): Make sure that all references to
+         layers, maps and sessions are removed otherwise we may get a

+         and redefine its purpose to return the pointer stored in a CObject
+         returned by the object's cobject method. Update all callers.
+         (s_draw_info, free_draw_info, draw_polygon_init): Implement the
+         handling of these low-level parameters so that each s_draw_info
+         instance is handled as a CObject at python level that also
+         contains real references to the actual python objects which
+         contain the values in the struct. Add free_draw_info as the
+         destructor.
+         (draw_polygon_shape): Add the py_draw_info parameter which must a

+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py: It was decided that if the user closes

+-04-07  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         Since we now say that the order of the groups in a classification
+         matters, it makes sense to be able to manipulate that order. Most
+         of the changes to Thuban/Model/classification.py are to that end.
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py (Classification.AppendGroup,
+         Classification.InsertGroup, Classification.ReplaceGroup,
+         Classification.RemoveGroup, Classification.GetGroup): Do as the
+         names imply.
+         (Classification.FindGroup): This was called GetGroup, but GetGroup
+         takes an index, while FindGroup takes a value.
+         (Classification.__deepcopy__): Copy all the groups, BUT NOT THE LAYER
+         REFERENCE. Currently there is a cyclic reference between the layer
+         and its classification. If the classification doesn't need to know
+         its owning layer we can change this, since it may make sense to be
+         able to use the same classification with different layers.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py: Use Classification.AppendGroup(), not AddGroup()
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py: Use Classification.AppendGroup(),
+         not AddGroup()
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Now that we can depend on the order in
+         a Classification and have methods to manipulate that order we don't
+         need to use our own data structures in the grid. We can simply make
+         the grid/table access the information they need from a copy of
+         the classification object.
+         (Classifier._OnCloseBtn): Event handler for when the user clicks
+         'Close'. This is needed so if the user applies changes and then
+         continues to change the table the user has the option of discarding
+         the most recent changes and keeping what they applied.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: Put "Show Legend" and "Show Session Tree"
+         into the same group.
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (check_version): If Thuban is compiled
+         with a really old version of proj, PJ_VERSION won't even be defined.
+         If it isn't defined then just compile so that the function always
+         returns Py_False.
+         * test/test_classification.py: Fix tests to use the renamed methods.
+         Still need to write tests for the new methods.
+-04-04  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__SelectField): Move the
+         call to SetSelection out of the method and before the call
+         to __SelectField in __init__. This prevents a recursion of events
+         when _OnFieldSelect is triggered by the user.
+-04-04  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Rename Color.None to
+         Color.Transparent.
+         (ClassGroupProperties.SetLineColori, ClassGroupProperties.SetFill):
+         Don't bother copying the color, since Colors are immutable.
+         * Thuban/Model/color.py, Thuban/Model/layer.py, Thuban/Model/load.py,
+         Thuban/UI/classifier.py, Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py,
+         Thuban/UI/renderer.py, Thuban/UI/view.py:
+         Rename Color.None to Color.Transparent.
+         * test/test_classification.py, test/test_load.py: Rename Color.None
+         to Color.Transparent.
+-04-04  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Fix assert calls.
+         (ClassGroupProperties.SetLineColor, ClassGroupProperties.SetFill):
+         Copy the color parameter rather than hold onto a reference.
+         * Thuban/Model/color.py (Color.__copy__, Color.__deepcopy): Copy
+         the color object.
+         (NoColor.__copy__, NoColor.__deepcopy): Return 'self' so that we
+         are sure there exists only one refernce to Color.None in the system.
+         This allows us to use 'is' rather than the comparision functions.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py: Fix assert calls.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Fix assert calls.
+         (ClassGrid._OnCellDClick): Call up to the classifier to open the
+         dialog to edit the groups properties.
+         (ClassGrid._OnCellResize): Make sure that the scollbars are drawn
+         correctly if a cell is resized.
+         (ClassTable.SetClassification): New. Changes the classification
+         that is in the table.
+         (ClassTable.__SetRow): Allow groups to be prepended.
+         (Classifier): New code for opening the EditProperties and
+         GenerateRanges dialogs.
+         (SelectPropertiesDialog.__GetColor): Only set the color in the
+         color dialog if the current color is not None.
+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py: Fix assert calls.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py: Fix assert calls.
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py: Fix assert calls.
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py (ClassGenDialog): Dialog for generating
+         classifications.
+         (GenRangePanel): Panel specific to range generation.
+         (GenSingletonPanel): Panel specific to singleton generation.
+         (ClassGenerator): Class responsible for actually generating
+         the classification from the data gathered in the dialog box.
+         (PropertyRamp): Generates properties whose values range from
+         a starting property to an ending property.
+-04-03  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/support.py (print_garbage_information): New function that
+         prints information about still connected messages and memory
+         leaks.
+         (run_suite): Removed.
+         (run_tests): New function for use as a replacement of
+         unittest.main in the test_* files. This one calls
+         print_garbage_information at the end.
+         * test/runtests.py (main): Use support.print_garbage_information
+         * test/test_layer.py: Use support.run_tests instead of
+         unittest.main so we get memory leak information

+         (TestLayer.test_point_layer, TestLayer.test_empty_layer)
+         (TestLayerLegend.test_visibility): Call the layer's Destroy method

+         method to fix a memory leak.
+-04-02  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (check_version, check_version_gtk):
+         Handle the reference counts of the return value and errors in
+         PyArg_ParseTuple correctly.
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.OpenSession): Make
+         sure the filename is absolute to avoid problems when saving the
+         session again
+         * Thuban/Model/table.py: Remove unnecessary import. Fix a typo.
+-04-01  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         *  Thuban/UI/renderer.py (MapRenderer.draw_point_shape): Check

+         its children.
+         (DockFrame): Listen for EVT_CLOSE and destroy all children.

+         no support in wxWindows as of this date for windows that can
+         attach themselves to other windows.
+         The current model contains a DockableWindow which has a parent
+         window for when it is detached and a dock window that it puts
+         its contents in when it is docked. The contents of a DockableWindow
+         must be a DockPanel. DockPanel itself derives from wxPanel.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer.ClassChanged): Send a LAYER_CHANGED
+         message, not a LAYER_LEGEND_CHANGED message.
+         * Thuban/Model/map.py (Map): Forward LAYER_CHANGED messages.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__init__): Use wxADJUST_MINSIZE
+         as one of the style properties for the fieldTypeText item to
+         be sure that its size is correct when the text changes.
+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py: New. Classes for the DockPanel and
+         DockableWindow.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py: Added some more buttons and made the
+         LegendPanel a DockPanel.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: Added sash windows to the main window
+         and supporting functions for manipulating the sashes.
+         (MainWindow.ShowLegend): Create a DockableWindow with the
+         LegendPanel as the contents.
+         * Thuban/UI/messages.py: Added DOCKABLE_* messages
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py (MapCanves.SetMap): Listen for LAYER_CHANGED,
+         not LAYER_LEGEND_CHANGED, messages.
+-03-25  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * setup.py: Added custom script bdist_rpm_build_script so that
+         when the rpm is built the path to wx-config is correct.
+         * setup.cfg: Added line saying to use the custom build script
+-03-20  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         Initial implementation of the Legend.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py: New. Creates a window that shows the map's
+         Legend information and allows the user to add/modify classifications
+         and how the layers are drawn on the map.
+         * setup.py: New command 'build_docs' which currently uses
+         happydoc to generate html documentation for Thuban.
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py (ClassGroup.GetDisplayText): New.
+         Returns a string which is appropriately describes the group.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer.SetClassification): Generate a
+         LAYER_CHANGED event instead of a LAYER_LEGEND_CHANGED event.
+         * Thuban/Model/map.py (Map): Rename messages and use new, more
+         specific, messages.
+         * Thuban/Model/messages.py: New message to indicate that a layer's
+         data has changed (LAYER_CHANGED). New map messages to indicate
+         when layers have been added/removed/changed or if the stacking order
+         of the layers has changed.
+         * Thuban/Model/session.py: Rename and use new messages.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Remember if any changes have actually
+         been applied so that if the dialog is cancelled without an application
+         of changes we don't have to set a new classification.
+         (ClassDataPreviewer): Pulled out the window specific code and put it
+         ClassDataPreviewWindow. ClassDataPreviewer can then be used to draw
+         symbols on any DC.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: New code to open the legend.
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py: Use new message names.
+-03-19  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/main.py (verify_versions): New. Checks the versions
+         of Python, wxPython, and some other libraries.
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (check_version): Checks the given
+         version against what wxproj was compiled with.
+         (check_version_gtk): If wxproj was compiled with gtk then check
+         the given version against the version of the gtk library
+         currently being used.
+-03-14  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/test_command.py: Run the tests when the module is run as a
+         script
+-03-14  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Implement selection of multiple selected shapes in the same layer:
+         - Introduce a new class to hold the selection. This basically
+           replaces the interactor which was nothing more than the
+           selection anyway. A major difference is of course that the new
+           selection class supports multiple selected shapes in one layer
+         - Move the object that represents the selection from the
+           application to the canvas. The canvas is a better place than the
+           application because the selection represents which shapes and
+           layer of the map displayed by the canvas are selected and
+           affects how the map is drawn.
+         - Make the selection and its messages publicly available through
+           the mainwindow.
+         - The non-modal dialogs do not get a reference to the interactor
+           anymore as they can simply refer to their parent, the
+           mainwindow, for the what the interactor had to offer.
+         * Thuban/UI/selection.py: New module with a class to represent the
+         selection.
+         * Thuban/UI/messages.py (SELECTED_TABLE, SELECTED_MAP): Remove
+         these unused messages
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.OnInit)
+         (ThubanApplication.OnExit, ThubanApplication.SetSession): The
+         interactor is gone now.
+         (ThubanApplication.CreateMainWindow): There is no interactor
+         anymore so we pass None as the interactor argument for now for
+         compatibility.
+         * Thuban/UI/view.py (MapCanvas.delegated_messages)
+         (MapCanvas.Subscribe, MapCanvas.Unsubscribe): In Subscribe and
+         Unsubscribe, delegate messages according to the delegated_messages
+         class variable.
+         (MapCanvas.__getattr__, MapCanvas.delegated_methods): Get some
+         attributes from instance variables as described with the
+         delegated_methods class variable.
+         (MapCanvas.__init__): New instance variable selection holding the
+         current selection
+         (MapCanvas.do_redraw): Deal with multiple selected shapes. Simply
+         pass them on to the renderer
+         (MapCanvas.SetMap): Clear the selection when a different map is
+         selected.
+         (MapCanvas.shape_selected): Simple force a complete redraw. The
+         selection class now takes care of only issueing SHAPES_SELECTED
+         messages when the set of selected shapes actually does change.
+         (MapCanvas.SelectShapeAt): The selection is now managed in
+         self.selection
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.delegated_messages)
+         (MainWindow.Subscribe, MainWindow.Unsubscribe): In Subscribe and
+         Unsubscribe, delegate messages according to the delegated_messages
+         class variable.
+         (MainWindow.delegated_methods, MainWindow.__getattr__): Get some
+         attributes from instance variables as described with the
+         delegated_methods class variable.
+         (MainWindow.__init__): The interactor as ivar is gone. The
+         parameter is still there for compatibility. The selection messages
+         now come from the canvas.
+         (MainWindow.current_layer, MainWindow.has_selected_layer):
+         Delegate to the the canvas.
+         (MainWindow.LayerShowTable, MainWindow.Classify)
+         (MainWindow.identify_view_on_demand): The dialogs don't need the
+         interactor parameter anymore.
+         * Thuban/UI/tableview.py (TableFrame.__init__)
+         (LayerTableFrame.__init__, LayerTableFrame.OnClose)
+         (LayerTableFrame.row_selected): The interactor is gone. It's job
+         from the dialog's point of view is now done by the mainwindow,
+         i.e. the parent. Subscribe to SHAPES_SELECTED instead
+         of SELECTED_SHAPE
+         * Thuban/UI/dialogs.py (NonModalDialog.__init__): The interactor
+         is gone. It's job from the dialog's point of view is now done by
+         the mainwindow, i.e. the parent.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__init__): The interactor is
+         gone. It's job from the dialog's point of view is now done by the
+         mainwindow, i.e. the parent.
+         * Thuban/UI/tree.py (SessionTreeView.__init__): The interactor is
+         gone. It's job from the dialog's point of view is now done by the
+         mainwindow, i.e. the parent.
+         (SessionTreeCtrl.__init__): New parameter mainwindow which is
+         stored as self.mainwindow. The mainwindow is need so that the tree
+         can still subscribe to the selection messages.
+         (SessionTreeCtrl.__init__, SessionTreeCtrl.unsubscribe_all)
+         (SessionTreeCtrl.update_tree, SessionTreeCtrl.OnSelChanged): The
+         selection is now accessible through the mainwindow. Subscribe to
+         SHAPES_SELECTED instead of SELECTED_SHAPE
+         * Thuban/UI/identifyview.py (IdentifyView.__init__): Use the
+         SHAPES_SELECTED message now.
+         (IdentifyView.selected_shape): Now subscribed to SHAPES_SELECTED,
+         so deal with multiple shapes
+         (IdentifyView.__init__, IdentifyView.OnClose): The interactor is
+         gone. It's job from the dialog's point of view is now done by the
+         mainwindow, i.e. the parent.
+         * Thuban/UI/controls.py (RecordListCtrl.fill_list): The second
+         parameter is now a list of shape ids.
+         (RecordTable.SetTable): The second parameter is now a list of
+         indices.
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (ScreenRenderer.RenderMap): Rename the
+         selected_shape parameter and ivar to selected_shapes. It's now a
+         list of shape ids.
+         (MapRenderer.draw_label_layer): Deal with multiple selected
+         shapes. Rearrange the code a bit so that the setup and shape type
+         distinctions are only executed once.
+         * test/test_selection.py: Test cases for the selection class
+-03-11  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py: Temporary fix so that the xml reader
+         doesn't cause Thuban to crash.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py: Handle the cyclic references between
+         a layer and its classification better, and be sure to disconnect
+         the classification from the layer when the layer is destroyed
+         so that we don't maintain a cyclic reference that may not be
+         garbage collected.
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: See comment for layer.py.
