[GRASS-dev] wxGUI: new packages layout

[Martin Landa]

Hi all,

currently all wxGUI modules are located within one package called
`gui_modules`. This was more or less sufficient in the early stage of
wxGUI development. As wxGUI code base was growing new modules has been
added. Some wxGUI components (eg. vdigit) are based on more modules
(vdigit.py, mapdip_vdigit.py, etc.).

As wxGUI code base is still growing and the new components are being
introduced (psmap, and now real i.class replacement) this structure is
becoming highly unsuitable and almost possible to manage.

At this stage I would like to propose more structured layout based on
several packages (core, gui_core, forms, lmgr or mapdisp) and non-core
sub-packages in `modules` package.

See

       http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/wxGUIDevelopment#ChangingGUImodulesdirectorylayout

Please feel free to comment this proposal, better sooner than later. I
would like to start moving to the new package layout during next week
(in trunk). Later after some testing to introduce changes to `devbr6`
otherwise backporting bug-fixes will become almost impossible
(nightmare for wxGUI developers).

Thanks for any comments! Martin
