+-04-23  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/resource.py: Fixes RTbug #1813.
+         (ReadProjFile): Add documentation about which exceptions are raised.
+         Always pass the exceptions up to the caller.
+         (GetProjFiles): If the directory can't be read return an empty list.
+         If any of the proj files can't be read skip that file and go
+         on to the next one.
+         * test/test_proj.py: Added test cases to handle nonexistent files,
+         unreadable files, and files that don't parse correctly.
+-04-23  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         Projection dialog. Allows the user to select from a list
+         of projection templates and optionally edit them and save new ones.
+         * Thuban/UI/projdialog.py (ProjFrame): New. Main dialog.
+         (ProjPanel): Base class for projection specific panels.
+         (TMPanel): Projection panel for Transverse Mercartor.
+         (UTMPanel): Projection panel for Universal Transverse Mercartor.
+         (LCCPanel): Projection panel for Lambert Conic Conformal.
+         (GeoPanel): Projetion panel for Geographic Projection.
+-04-23  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (XMLReader): Renamed from XMLProcessor to
+         promote symmetry. There now exists XMLReader and XMLWriter.
+         (XMLReader.read): New. Call to read the given file descriptor or
+         filename.
+         (XMLReader.close): New. Make sure the file is closed.
+         (XMLReader.GetFileName): New. Return just the file name that is being
+         read from.
+         (XMLReader.GetDirectory): New. Return just the directory of the file
+         that is being read.
+         (XMLReader.AddDispatchers): New. Take a dictionary which contains
+         the names of functions to call as the XML tree is parsed.
+         (XMLReader.startElementNS): Updated to use new dispatcher dictionary.
+         (XMLReader.endElementNS): Updated to use new dispatcher dictionary.
+         (SessionLoader): Removed class variables start_dispatcher and
+         end_dispatcher since this functionality is now part of a class
+         instance. Fixes RTbug #1808.
+         (SessionLoader.__init__): Add dispatcher functions.
+         (load_xmlfile): Code was moved into the XMLReader.read().
+         (load_session): Use modified SessionLoader.
+         * Thuban/Model/map.py (Map.GetProjection): New. Returns the
+         map's projection.
+         * Thuban/Model/proj.py (Projection.GetParameters): Renamed to

+         (ProjFileReader): Extend new XMLReader.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (XMLWriter): Renamed from XMLSaver to
+         promote symmetry.
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py (ClassGenDialog.__init__): Use a wxChoice
+         control instead of a wxComboBox. wxChoice controls do not generate
+         events as the uses highlights possible choices which fixes problems
+         with resizing the dialog when the use selects an option.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__init__): Use a wxChoice
+         control instead of a wxComboBox.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.Projection): Use new projection
+         dialog.

+         anymore.
+         (Layer.BoundingBox, Layer.GetFieldType, Layer.NumShapes)
+         (Layer.ShapeType, Layer.Shape): No need to call
+         self.open_shapefile since it's always called in __init__
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.MainLoop): Removed.
+         In wxPython 2.4 there's no need to extend MainLoop anymore since
+         wxPython itself makes sure OnExit is called.
+-04-16  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         Initial putback of projection management code. Includes new
+         classes to read and write projection files. The current load
+         and save classes were abstracted a bit so they could be reused.
+         The Projection class was extended to provide new methods and
+         have a name.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (XMLProcessor): New. Contains all the
+         general XML reading methods that were part of ProcessSession.

+         for read and writing projection files.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (XMLSaver): New. Contains all the
+         general XML writing methods that were part of SessionSaver.
+         (SessionSaver): Renamed from Saver.
+         * test/test_proj.py: New test cases for the projection
+         file read and write functions.
+-04-16  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Use repr() around values
+         in the ClassGroup*.__repr__() methods so it is clearer when
+         a value is a string and when it is a number.
+         * test/test_load.py: Rework the classification test to test
+         that we can load old files.
+         (testLabels): Test a file where the groups have labels.
+-04-16  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Safer implementation of the performance enhancements of the
+         low-level renderer:
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (extract_projection)
+         (extract_pointer): Rename extract_projection to extract_pointer
+         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
+         cobject containing an s_draw_info pointer.
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (MapRenderer.polygon_render_param): New
+         method to instantiat the low-level render parameter
+         (MapRenderer.draw_shape_layer): Use the new method. Remove some
+         commented out code.
+         (MapRenderer.draw_polygon_shape): Make the first parameter not the
+         layer but the low-level render parameter
+         (ScreenRenderer.draw_shape_layer): Use the low-level render
+         parameter.
+-04-15  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Implemented __repr__ for
+         the ClassGroup* classes to make debugging a bit easier.
+         (ClassGroup.SetLabel): Check that the string is an instance
+         of StringTypes not StringType. Accounts for Unicode strings.

+         correctly.
+-04-15  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * extensions/thuban/wxproj.cpp (draw_polygon_init): New. Used
+         to improve rendering performance by initializing the variables
+         that are not change each time draw_polygon_shape() is called.
+         The values are stored in a global struct draw_info.
+         (draw_polygon_shape): Removed initialization code that is
+         now in draw_polygon_init().
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (MapRenderer.draw_shape_layer): Make
+         drawing initialization call to draw_polygon_init()
+         (MapRenderer.draw_polygon_shape): Use new signature of

+         weirdness by setting the range to (1, maxint).
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py (ClassGroupProperties): Make
+         instance variables private and optimize comparison operator
+         by first checking if the color references are the same.

+         level panel to the dialog so that the background colors are
+         consistent under Windows.
+-04-11  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py: Change color ramps to start at white

+-04-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: (ClassGroup): Move all the common

+         (ClassGroupPropertiesCtrl): New. Encapsulates the drawing and
+         editing of a group properties class into a wxWindows control.
+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py: It was decided that if the user closes
+         a dockable window the window should simply hide itself. That
+         way if the user wants to show the dock again it appears in the
+         same place as it was when it was closed.
+         (DockableWindow.Destroy): Call renamed method OnDockDestroy().

+         menu items
+         (_has_tree_window_shown, _has_legend_shown): Use the appropriate
+         mainwindow methods.
+         (show_session_tree, show_legend commands): Removed.
+         (toggle_session_tree, toggle_legend commands): New commands to

+         (MainWindow.ShowLegend): Remove unnecessary switch parameter.
+-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

+         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

+         RTbug #1769.
+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py (DockableWindow.UnDock): Restore size and
+         position (although position doesn't work yet under GTK).

+         be removed.
+         * Thuban/UI/dock.py: Complete rework on the dock code so that
+         that it is fairly removed from the rest of the Thuban application.
+         It is easy to add new docks which the rest of the program having
+         to be aware of them.

+         This putback contains the code for dockable windows. There is
+         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

+         * 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]>

+         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.

+         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

+         list of shape ids.
+         (MapRenderer.draw_label_layer): Deal with multiple selected

+-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.
+-03-12  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * HOWTO-Release: New. Information on the steps for releasing
+         a new version of Thuban.
+-03-11  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Add normal border to SelectPropertiesDialog.
+         Use True instead of true.
+         (Classifier): Should have a single panel in which all the controls lie.
+         * Thuban/UI/proj4dialog.py: Add normal border.
+         * Thuban/UI/tree.py: Fixed problem with bad item images under Windows.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: Use True instead of true.
+         * setup.py: Update some definitions to use wxWindows2.4 files
+         * Data/iceland_sample_class.thuban: Fixed file so that the
+         field_type information is present.
+-03-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier.__init__): Make the
+         field type label grow so that when the text changes the
+         size is updated correctly. This may be a wxWindows bug.
+-03-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py: Changed SESSION_CHANGED to
+         SESSION_REPLACED.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Wrap text with _().
+         (ClassGrid.CreateTable): Set dimensions and size hints here,
+         instead of in Reset, so we only set the size once.
+         * Thuban/UI/dialogs.py: Don't need Shutdown(); just use Close()!
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.prepare_new_session):
+         Call Close() instead of Shutdown().
+         * Thuban/UI/messages.py: Changed SESSION_CHANGED to SESSION_REPLACED.
+         * Thuban/UI/tree.py: Changed SESSION_CHANGED to SESSION_REPLACED.
+         Go back to using OnClose() instead of Shutdown().
+-03-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier): SelectField() needed
+         to know the old field index as well as the new one.
+-03-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (Classifier): Use __SelectField()
+         to correctly set the table information and call this from
+         __init__ and from _OnFieldSelect so that all the information
+         is up to date when the dialog opens and when a field is changed.
+-03-10  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py (Classification): Don't use
+         layer's message function directly, use the ClassChanged() method
+         when then classification changes. SetField/SetFieldType/SetLayer
+         must keep the information about field name and field type in
+         sync when an owning layer is set or removed.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py: Added ClassChanged() so that the
+         classification can tell the layer when its data has changed.
+         (Layer.SetClassification): Accepts None as an arguement to
+         remove the current classification and correctly handles
+         adding a new classification.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py: Comment out print statement
+         * test/test_classification.py, test/test_save.py: New and
+         improved tests.
+-03-07  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>

+         (ClassGroupProperites.__init__): The default line color should
+         have been Color.Black.
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py: Setting and Getting table values now
+         uses a consistent set of functions.
+         (Classifier): Now non-modal. Has field type label which changes
+         as the field changes. Keep track of buttons in a list so that
+         we can enable/disable the buttons when the None field is selected.
+         (SelectPropertiesDialog): Add buttons to make the colors transparent.
+         * Thuban/UI/dialogs.py (NonModalDialog.Shutdown): New method which
+         does what OnClose did, but can be called by the application to
+         close a window. Needed when a session changes, and we have to
+         close the classifier windows.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.prepare_new_session):
+         Shuts down open dialogs. Used when a new session is created
+         or a session is opened.
+         (MainWindow.SaveSession): Should only call application.SaveSession()
+         if we don't call SaveSessionAs first.
+         (MainWindow.Classify): Allow different classifier dialogs for
+         different layers.
+         * Thuban/UI/tree.py (SessionTreeView): Remove OnClose and let
+         the parent class handle it. Add Shutdown() to unsubscibe from
+         event notification and call the parent Shutdown(). This was
+         necessary so the application can close the tree window.
+-03-06  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Minor documentation changes,
+         Addition of __eq__ and __ne__ methods.

+         and Layer.SetClassification().
+         * Thuban/Model/color.py: Addition of __eq__ and __ne__ methods.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (SetClassification): prevent recursion
+         between this method and Classification.SetLayer().
+         * test/test_classification.py, test/test_load.py,
+         test/test_session.py: Fixed and added tests for the classification
+         classes.
+-03-06  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classifier.py (ClassGrid.__init__)
+         (ClassGrid.CreateTable): Move the SetSelectionMode call to
+         CreateTable because otherwise it triggers an assertion in
+         wxPython/wxGTK 2.4.
+-03-05  Jonathan Coles   <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/common.py: Move FIELDTYPE constants back to table.py.

+         Fixed RTbug #1713, #1714. Added Move[Up|Down] buttons.
+         Store just the groups in the table and generate the other
+         column information when it is requested. Add "None" field
+         to pull-down to select no classification.
+         * Thuban/common.py: Moved FIELDTYPE constants from table.py
+         (Str2Num): Only catch ValueError exceptions.
+         * Thuban/Model/classification.py: Class documentation. Renaming
+         of methods with Stroke to Line. Groups are stored in a single
+         list with the default as the first element. Groups are searched
+         in the order they appear in the list.
+         * Thuban/Model/color.py: Documentation.
+         * Thuban/Model/layer.py (Layer): Add GetFieldType to retreive
+         the kind of data represented by a field.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (ProcessSession): Use proper string
+         conversion function; fixes RTbug #1713.
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (Saver): Store field type information.
+         * Thuban/Model/table.py: Put FIELDTYPE constants in common.py.
+         (Table): Add field_info_by_name() to retrieve field information

+         session into an XML file. The main reason to introduce a class is
+         that applications built on Thuban can derive from it so that they
+         can save additional information in a session file.
+         (save_session): Delegate almost all the work to the Saver class.
+         Rename the filename argument to file because it may be a file like
+         object now.
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py: Get rid of the Python 1.5.2 compatibility
+         code. Remove the little test code which would be executed when the
+         module is run as a script which didn't work anymore since it can't
+         import the other Thuban modules.
+         (ProcessSession, load_session): Refactor the ProcessSession to
+         have one method for each element start and end tag so that derived
+         classes can easily override the processing of individual tags.
+         Also, always parse with namespaces enabled because applications
+         built on top of Thuban will likely use namespaces if they extend
+         the session file format.
