AW: [Qgis-developer] Planning for QGIS 1.0.0 '????'

[Hugentobler Marco]

Hi Jürgen and Tim,

I'm going to look at it next monday when I'm back from holidays.

Yes, this function is in use for polygon splitting. However, I don't remember how important the call for cutEdges function really is. It is possible that this section aborts polygon splits where the splitting line doesn't go through the whole polygon.

Regards,
Marco

I think we would cause a riot if we disable split feature. Marco is
that your tool (split feature) - is there any way we can use a geos
c-api call there? Would be good to do so and get Jefs changes into
trunk then.
