This sounds great, almost exactly what I was pondering. I think it might make also sense to have two sets of defaults, a hierarchical and flat layout which could be detected by Gradle.
I think it is a very good idea to specifically support flat layouts. I haven't thought about this. It should also be pretty easy to implement.
Looking through the source code yesterday I was contemplating how you could provide alternative layouts and have them picked-up automatically when invoking a build from any directory (sub-project).
Either looking into each folder of the same hierarchy for a settings.gradle file. Or by naming convention (e.g. folder with the name 'master' in the same hierarchy).
Also, it might make sense to have a series of named layouts predefined in a gradle_home settings file/script which could be referenced from any project settings file, the two defaults being "flat" and "hirearchical".
I have to think about this. - Hans -- Hans Dockter Gradle Project lead http://www.gradle.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
