Reorg the repository into plugins/, features/, releng/ and other directories

[cxbrooks]

The top level directory of the repo is cluttered. Perhaps we should create plugins/, features/, releng/ and other directories.

We would need to update the how Maven builds.

This should happen after the Science 2016 Release.

some inspiration can be found e.g. on http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseTycho/article.html#good-practice-for-eclipse-components-organization

subfolders created according to some examples I found.
the build works again.

can you review and close if OK?

Thanks for doing this! It looks pretty good. I was able to check out a new tree and run mvn.

A couple of comments:

1. I think we lost the Welcome Window, see Bug Create Welcome Support #169 Create Welcome Window Support

2. After checking out a new tree and doing the setup by hand, in the Package Explorer, the various packages are displayed at the top level instead of in their folders:

However, the top level directory looks fine:

bash-3.2$ ls ~/git/triquetrum
CONTRIBUTING.md         README.md               javadoc                 releng                  tests
LICENSE                 examples                plugins                 setups
README-python-rpc.md    features                pom.xml                 target
bash-3.2$

Any ideas?

Christopher, The welcome screen hasn’t worked yet for me, i.e. also not before the folder restructuring. We need to check that topic separately I think. The Eclipse Project explorer indeed does not show projects in subfolders, as far as I know. We might define so-called “working sets” that correspond to folders, if you prefer. (I think the Eclipse WTP project has hierarchical project views, but that’s for doing Java Enterprise dvp, not RCP) Regards erwin From: Christopher Brooks [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 26, 2017 11:18 PM To: eclipse/triquetrum <[email protected]> Cc: erwin de ley <[email protected]>; Assign <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [eclipse/triquetrum] Reorg the repository into plugins/, features/, releng/ and other directories (#170) Thanks for doing this!

I'll reopen the Welcome Window bug.

Thanks for the info about the subfolders.

Let's close this.
