Description

MapFile.Writer provides a setIndexInterval() method for customizing how frequently an index is written. By default it is set to 128.

The method MapFile.fix() provides the ability to regenerate just the index file from the existing data file. This method hard codes the index interval to 128, thus making it impossible to re-generate an index with custom intervals.
