Hi, i'm wondering what is your opinion on this. Before starting with coding for 11.1 i intend to reorganize zypper's sources a bit to avoid too much typing (each file has 'zypper-' prefix), to reduce compilation time, and to split zypper-misc.* and zypper-utils.* which currently mix too much stuff together. All to make the code easier and more pleasant to work with. Some of this is obvious, but the rename part first. I intend to do the following: #!/bin/bash mv zypper.h Zypper.h mv zypper.cc Zypper.cc mv zypper-command.h Command.h mv zypper-command.cc Command.cc # remove 'zypper-' prefix from the sources for file in $(ls zypper-*); do mv $file ${file:7}; done # move callback headers to separate folder and remove the -callbacks prefix mkdir callbacks for file in $(ls *-callbacks.h); do mv $file callbacks/${file%-callbacks.h}.h; done # adapt include paths sed -i -e 's/zypper.h/Zypper.h/g' $(grep -Rl 'zypper.h' *) sed -i -e 's/zypper.cc/Zypper.cc/g' $(grep -Rl 'zypper.cc' *) sed -i -e 's/zypper-command.(h|cc)/Command.\1/g' $(grep -Rl 'zypper-command.(h|cc)' *) sed -i -e 's/zypper-(.*.(h|cc))/\1/g' $(grep -Rl 'zypper-.*.(h|cc)' *) sed -i -e 's/(\w*)-callbacks.h/callbacks/\1.h/g' $(grep -Rl '\w*-callbacks.h' *) for file in $(find -name '*.h'); do file1=${file:2} regex=${file1/.h/\.h} regex=${regex///\/}; sed -i -e "s/"$regex"/"..\/$regex"/g" callbacks/* done An obvious disadvantage is that it will be more difficult to apply patches from the modified source tree into the old one. But i still think it's worth it(?). Or is there an easy way how to do this with subversion? Otherwise a script for adapting patch files would be needed. Or a script reverting what the above script does. Or one would need to apply patches file by file. cheers, jano -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: zypp-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: zypp-devel+help@opensuse.org
