Hi all,

As you have probably noticed, I recently raised HARMONY-596
(which Mark has already kindly applied) to make .lib and .a files generate
straight into the deploy/lib directory.

I think that now we are in a position to finally modularise the classlib
native
code. I've volunteered to do this, and plan to move the code down into the
modules in the layout described in [1], since I believe there were no
objections.

Other than my outstanding objections to how HDK is being conflated with
the deploy directory, none :)

Notice I didn't mention the hdk at all in my previous mail ;)

I know I owe you some responses from last week, and that stuff shouldn't
stand in the way of what you want to do here.

Yes, our plans for the HDK are separate to what I'm doing here - this is purely about
putting the native code under the modules directory.

I will probably warm up with some of the "easier" modules - prefs/text/auth
- before moving onto archive and luni. Ill raise a separate JIRA for each
set of moves, and let you all know how I progress and if there are any
problems/questions I have.

I assume this is gradual - that you can do one module first, it can go
into SVN, and all still is fine?

That's exactly what I plan to do - small chunks that can be applied to SVN
individually rather than one world changing event.
I will take one module at a time (probably starting with prefs) and prepare a patch to move the native code that should be under that module into the right place, and alter all the necessary build scripts. Once that's ready, Ill raise a
JIRA and attach the patch in the usual way, and then move onto the next
module with a new patch and JIRA.

Regards,
Oliver


I also plan to create a doc for the website describing the location of
the native
code, and summarising how platform specific and shared code is laid out
within each native component.

Ooh!  Ah!  THanks!
