GPX 1.1 - wrong header

[sgapps-de]

Congratualtions for your great little tool!

But with activating GPX 1.1 logging the header for version 1.0 is written to the GPX file. Therefore some programs (e.g. RouteConverter) can't read the file due to the missing "gpxtpx" namespace.

As I understand your code (I do not really know Java) the problem is the private definition of "getBeginningXml" which is therefore not virtual. The addition of "public" or "protected" (the better option?) should do the trick.

I just did a quick test and I can see the version 1.1 header as well as the gpxtpx namespace.

If the file already existed when GPX 1.1 was selected then the header wouldn't be written. Are you trying with a new file?

Sample:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><gpx version="1.1" creator="GPSLogger 133 - http://gpslogger.mendhak.com/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1" xmlns:gpxtpx="http://www.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrackPointExtension/v2" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1 http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd http://www.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrackPointExtension/v2 https://www8.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrackPointExtensionv2.xsd "><metadata><time>2025-02-11T20:18:48.381Z</time></metadata><trk><name>20250211</name><trkseg><trkpt lat="42.8509" lon="-2.8970183333333335"><ele>534.4</ele><time>2025-02-11T20:18:48.381Z</time><extensions><gpxtpx:TrackPointExtension><gpxtpx:bearing>51.99</gpxtpx:bearing><gpxtpx:speed>0.0</gpxtpx:speed></gpxtpx:TrackPointExtension></extensions><geoidheight>0.</geoidheight><src>gps</src><sat>6</sat></trkpt>

I am sorry! You are of course right. I did miss the fact that the new points are appended to the file. So I must delete the existing GPX file when changing the format.
Thank you for your advice.
