[OSM-dev] osmosis --bb/--bp with completeWays

[Frederik Ramm]

Hi,

   this is probably a question to Karl Newman: In Osmosis, when you
extract an area with complete-ways, it does this:

// If complete ways are desired, stuff the node into a file
if (completeWays) {
   allNodes.add(container);
}
// Only add the node if it lies within the box boundaries.
if (isNodeWithinArea(node)) {
   ...

I wonder if it would not be sufficient to store all nodes that are
*not* in the box bondaries in allNodes? After all, you need allNodes
to dump additional nodes later on; but the ones you have alrady added
will not get added again so you will not need them...?

Bye
Frederik
