MgCoordinateSystem::MathComparator is flying under false colors.

Description

Presumably, the intent of the MgCoordinateSystemMathComparator object was to enable a comparison of coordinate systes, datums, and ellipsoids with "numerical equivalence" as the comparison criteria. Currently, when comparing datums (for example) only the ellipsoid names are compared. Similarly, when comparing coordinate systems, the names of the referenced datums are compared; the actual datums are NOT (currently) compared for numerical equivalence.

I thought I saw some work done on this. Is this still a problem in 2.1, or can the ticket be closed?

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

The MathComparator object was updated so that "mathematical" comparisons of ellipsoids and datums was added to the coordinate system comparison. Previously, the coordinate system comparator would only compare datum and ellipsoid names. Also added the ability to use different tolerances for different projection parameters. That is, use a different tolerance for different parameters types.
