have specific icons, instead of generic qgis icon
We consider these 'top level' algorithms, and using the
standard algorithm icon should help reflect this and
differentiate them from 3rd party algorithms.
Algorithms and other processing code should use this method
(instead of dataobjects.getLayerFromString) to
retrieve layers from a string, as it considers the processing
context and allows resolving strings to temporarily stored layers.
This permits processing models to function correctly when
intermediate results are stored as memory layers. Subsequent
model algorithms can then access these temporary layers as inputs.
All temporary layers will be removed when the context object
is destroyed after the model algorithm is run.
Also
- simplify and add tests
- remove large memory leak (persistant store of all non-project layers)
- remove broken support for direct loading postgres/virtual layers
by string (Python version was very broken and would never match
a postgres/virtual layer)
This algorithm allows you to extract specific nodes from geometries.
Eg you can extract the first or last node in the geometry.
The algorithm accepts a comma separated list of node indices to
extract, eg 0 = first node, 1 = second node, etc. Negative indices
can be used to extract nodes from the end of the geometry. Eg
-1 = last node, -2 = second last node.
