wxgui vector query doesn't work for maps without attribute table

[marisn]

Import vector data set without attribute data. Add to layer manager. Select it. Choose "query" tool in map display. Click on vector object:

KeyError

Expected results: query tool should report geometry properties, object id etc. and not fail with cryptic error.

Should be already fixed, try more recent version from SVN.

The crash part is fixed, still it doesn't work as expected, as it reports "nothing found" when I click inside areas.

Compare output on same feature of gis.m from 6.4 and wxgui from 7 (r49125):

This is still broken in 6.4.3. It used to work.

This should be fixed for GRASS 7 by this r52832. Please could you test it with your data so that I can backport it before release?

Thanks, Anna

[marisn]

Tested with GRASS 7 and now it works. Please, backport this to 6.4.3.

Related discussion on how it could work better is in #1703

[annakrat]

Backported in r52853, r52855 so I'm closing this ticket.
