[pgrouting-users] shootingstar_sp vs shortest_path_shooting_star

[Stephen Woodbridge]

I think shooting star on version 1.05 is broken at least for turn 
restrictions based on some test I've recently done.I think the we had to 
go back to 1.02 to get the turn restrictions to work.

Regarding oneway streets, there has been some discussion, maybe in a 
ticket, that oneway streets are really working but that the costs were 
getting reported incorrectly. I would create a very simple graph of 
about 10 edges and and make some of them oneway to force the route an 
otherwise longer way through the network on oneway streets than it could 
go if it ignored the oneway streets and see what the results are. If it 
really is bad then you have a trivial example that you can attach to a 
ticket that demonstrates the problem.

One of the things that I am advocating and have started developing are 
some simple sql files the build a graph and solve it and compare the 
results to an expected results files. I want to build a suite of these 
for an automated test suite that can be run before code checkins and 
before releases to validate them. I have already started building some 
of these as I have spare time. I would be happy to add any that users 
want to develop also. Keep the networks small in number of nodes and 
edges makes them easier to debug and easier to build and understand. In 
some of the ones I build, I have been surprised that the result was not 
my expected result, but valid none the less.

Thanks,
