Issue: A participant added ".../anagram- lib/src" directory as a resource. But it added also the "src" dir under the resources node. This is different from adding packages roots under the sources node. Analysis: The level at which resources are added is not the same as the level at which sources are added. Recommendation(s): The two need to be the same.
I must admin that I am not clear on what the problem is and can only barely guess what the cryptic description and recommendation mean. Maybe less sophisticated, but rather verbose or natural language explanation would help. Should "adding a resource" NOT create a node under "Resources" (note: do we still have the Resources in the Explorer at all) ? Assuming the recommendation talks about level of the "lib/src" node in the Explorer and the suggested resolution is to add resource's node to the same parent as the project sources are, how the user will: - distinguish between sources that are compiled and only included for reference (but not managed by the project) - filter out the reference classes from the (merged) package view ?
the problem is an off by one bug: take the directory: /stuff/myWork/specialWork/code if you want to add ~/code as a source root then you select specialWork and add. if you select specialWork as a directory to add as a resource then you get ~/specialWork as the root. so the problem is that in one case you need to select the parent of the content you want (source) and in the other case you just want to select the actual thing (resource).
this is a minor point that needs to be addressed or kept in mind...
No, no, no. People tend to forget about things, because they are just people. Please, describe it in uispec and close this as fixed. Leaving it open with 'should be kept in mind' resolution will definitely not work.
well, it is in the spec (somewhere, i know i wrote it there). so i guess i reckon it's fixed and thought i'd pass it off to Tomas. closing as fixed.
