Re: Navit on N900
 

I think it is pretty save to update. The issues I saw for streetsearch were caused by an old map I still had enabled. After disabling it they have been gone.

The house number search was probably broken, because I build my own maps which are below country level.

Just uploaded another update to 5477 to bokomoko.de. Should contain at least one important house number fix.

Also I changed version number to 0.5 as upstream did some time back.

dbus problem with Navit on N900
 

I am trying to add some voice control to Navit.

Somehow the following code, for zooming the Navit map, doesn't work anymore:

#!/usr/bin/python
import dbus
bus = dbus.SessionBus()
conn = bus.get_object('org.navit_project.navit', '/org/navit_project/navit')
iface = dbus.Interface(conn, dbus_interface='org.navit_project.navit')
iter = iface.attr_iter()
navit = bus.get_object('org.navit_project.navit', conn.get_attr_wi("navit",iter)[1]);
iface.attr_iter_destroy(iter)
navit_iface = dbus.Interface(navit, dbus_interface='org.navit_project.navit.navit')
navit_iface.zoom(2)

The first line that fails is
iter = iface.attr_iter()

Is this a bug in Navit, or did they change the dbus interface?

P.S.: I would also like to do the following stuff with dbus (via voice control):
- toggle 2D/3D
- select a bookmarked destination
- start/stop navigation

It would be nice if anyone could show me code or some documentation how to do this with dbus.

Re: dbus problem with Navit on N900
 

what exactly happens at that line? What error message do you get?

Have you enabled the dbus binding in navit.xml?
i think there was something about the dbus interface recently... but i don't remember exactly

Thank you very much gianko :)

That was the problem (stupid me). I didn't know that the dbus binding can be dis-/enabled in navit.xml.

I am still looking how to do the following stuff with dbus (via voice control):
- toggle 2D/3D
- select a bookmarked destination
- start/stop navigation

It would be nice if anyone could show me code or some documentation how to do this with dbus.

Uploaded release 5524 to bokomoko.de

I did not see any new features, looks more like a polishing release.

dbus problem with Navit on N900
 

I found out how to
- select a bookmarked destination, and to
- start/stop navigation

but I am still looking for a way to
- toggle 2D/3D
with dbus.

It would be nice if someone who knows how this can be done would post this here.
