#717: Vector digitizer tool in wx-Python GUI crashes after changing mapsets.
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Reporter: voncasec | Owner: grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.4.0
Component: wxGUI | Version: 6.4.0 RCs
Keywords: vector digitizer | Platform: Linux
Cpu: x86-64 |
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
After digitizing vector features in Mapset1 for example, I close the
digitizing tool, change my mapset to Mapset2 and re-open the digitizing
tool to digitize new features in my second mapset. However, after
selecting "New Vector Map" to digitize and giving it a name, I receive the
following error:
'''Vector digitizer error.'''
Unable to open vector map <test@Mapset2> for editing.
Data are probably corrupted, try to run v.build to rebuild the topology
(Vector->Develop vector map->Create/rebuild topology).
running v.build does not repair the newly created (featureless) vector
layer. The only fix I have found is to exit out of grass and restart using
the mapset2.

Comment:
changing mapsets mid-session from the GUI should throw up a big "are you
really sure you want to do this?" dialog, maybe in all caps for dramatic
effect. it's much safer to open another grass session.
I question if it should be offered from the gui menus at all.

Let's fix digitizer rather then removing this functionality from the wxGUI
menu.
