Description Bernhard Beschow 2011-09-05 12:04:48 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

When closing Marble, it looses data that is being recorded.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Close Marble gracefully or terminate it while recording a track.

Actual Results:  
Marble looses all tracking data.

Expected Results:  
Marble should never loose tracking data. It should keep the tracking data even if it was closed forcefully (caused by internal or external errros).

Mappero behaves the way requested above.

Git commit 35aa9a6cb9097380d282a48ee4679cb65bdd1735 by Thibaut Gridel.

PositionTracking: store current track to file, and reload on next launch

User will not lose his data as it is saved on closing the application
and reopened at startup.
Applications which want to benefit this need to call:
marbleModel()->positionTracking()->readSettings() and writeSettings()
