Release RC 2.4.714


Notes:

This is a Release Candidate.
What this means is that I consider that this version is ready for release as 2.5.0 unless we discover a fatal flaw (e.g. crash, or user data loss) in "normal" operation.
Every other problem or issue shall become a Feature Request for the next version.

Thank you all for you interest and help so far. One more push, and we can launch this baby....

Thank you Gunther

Looking good!

The Ubuntu packages are available.
I'm interested in hearing from users with "older" Ubuntu 32 bit installations, prior to 10.10. The new package is compiled on an 10.4 instead of an 10.10.

On 64 bit, make sure you un-install the old version before installing the new, if you have 2.4.708 installed.

Dave,
we got https://github.com/OpenCPN/OpenCPN/issues/2 a couple of hours ago. I just fired up my virtual Fedora 14 and ended with

[ 53%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/opencpn.dir/src/chcanv.cpp.o

nohal...

I understand your issue. New code, fussy compiler......

Fix is:
- m_current_item_id = NULL;
+ m_current_item_id = (wxTreeItemId)0;

But I do not understand the Fedora 15 i386 issue.
No change here between 708 and 714 except the cmake rules.

Any ideas?

- m_current_item_id = (wxTreeItemId)0;
+ m_current_item_id = (wxTreeItemId)(long)0;

Bizarre

[nohal]

As the Fedora 14 problem is dead, I'm doing upgrade to 15. Will let you know what it looks like there...

My report is armchair,(summer is the season of Relatives and all too)
But it's
Super! on my good ol'swayback nag ,XPSP1.
I installed over a configured working 2.3.and it went perfect.Kept all config settings that I had.
I had even clean-installed 2.3 without any vcredist aboard and went through the ol hack of installing the old vcredist2008 package....
2.4.714 is definitely FASTER than 2.3.1.

[cagney]

A bit of stress testing.
On an Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit I installed 1.3.6 and then upgraded to the new beta, no issues. Same result testing with 1.3.4. Looks good.

Thomas....

More stress ideas....

Try :
1. delete ~/.opencpn directory completely (or rename to save your favorite routes, etc.)

2. Install 1.3.6

3. Make some recognizable nav objects.

4. Install 2.4.714.

5. Verify that the newly made objects are present in 714.

Test logic rationale: 136 did not use navobj.xml structure.

As an old mentor used to tell me:
"NOW is the time to beat it with a stick...."

Thanks
Dave

[cagney]

Dave

No real problems found.

I made a route + 3 separate wpts in 1.3.6. They all came up in 2.4.714.
When deleting the route however the individual wpts in the route remained.
Easy to get rid of through "delete all" in the wpt tab.

The toolbar came up in the middle of the screen after he upgrade, not the supposed default position - top left.

Hi,

I don't understand.
I try to install on an Ubuntu 11.4
I have an error : The packages is unvailable. I try to continue but it stop !
Is there somebody else with the same problem?

Dave...
gcc version 4.6.0 20110530 (Red Hat 4.6.0-9) certainly does not like OpenCPN's assembler implementation of memset3 - the other #ifdef branch compiles well with the same fix as F14.
But the resulting product fails anyway with
