[GRASS-user] error in d.vect command in grass6.3.cvs??

[Guido Lorenz]

The  syntax of the d.vect command has changed slightly between version

6.2.1 and the latest 6.3.cvs versions (as of january 30  and later). In

6.3.cvs, I cannot execute succesfully a vector file display, nor from

the gis.m shell nor from the command line, whereas from 6.2.1 (and

former 6.3.cvs versions), the vector files display well.



The d.vect command of both versions and an example of error messages is

given here:



version 6.2.1

d.vect [-vacix] map=name [type=string[,string,...]]

[display=string[,string,...]] [attrcol=string] [icon=string]

[size=integer] [layer=integer] [cats=range] [where=sql_query]

[width=integer] [wcolumn=string] [wscale=float] [color=string]

[fcolor=string] [rgb_column=string] [llayer=integer] [lcolor=string]

[bgcolor=string] [bcolor=string] [lsize=integer] [font=string]

[xref=string] [yref=string] [minreg=float] [maxreg=float] 





version 6.3.1

d.vect [-vacix] output=name map=name [display=string[,string,...]]

[attrcol=string] [icon=string] [size=integer] [type=string[,string,...]]

[cat=integer] [where=sql_query] [width=integer] [wcolumn=string]

[wscale=float] [color=string] [fcolor=string] [rgb_column=string]

[llayer=string[,string,...]] [lcolor=string] [bgcolor=string]

[bcolor=string] [lsize=integer] [font=string] [xref=string]

[yref=string] [minreg=float] [maxreg=float] [--overwrite] [--verbose]

[--quiet]



example:

d.vect map=paguirre2006base6 color=0:0:0 lcolor=0:0:0 fcolor=170:170:170

display=shape type=point,line,boundary,centroid,area icon=basic/circle

size=5 layer=1 lsize=8 xref=left yref=center llayer=1



Sorry, <layer> is not a valid parameter



Error: value <paguirre2006base6> out of range for parameter <map>

       Legal range: point,line,boundary,centroid,area,face



Error: value <1> out of range for parameter <llayer>

       Legal range: point,line,boundary,centroid,area



ERROR: Required parameter <output> not set:

    (Name for output vector map).



Description:

 Displays GRASS vector data in the active frame on the graphics monitor.



Keywords:

 display







Any clue or fix out there?
