Re: [ros-dev] rosapps

I would opt for deleting everything in rosapps.

I'm not really sure why it's important to start rearranging it as there's
very little of use in there.

 

As per our project mandate we aren't interested in anything which isn't
core.

I'll explain his idea.

 

The idea he would likes to propose is to separate the mess inside rosapps,
and provide a clear division of what goes where:

1. trunk/reactos contains ONLY stuff which is vital for the system to work
minimally. Including explorer, GUI, and things like that, but without
calculator, solitaire, or anything like that.

2. rosapps - components similar to those present in Windows, but not vital
for the boot process.

3. addons - components, which are additional to the base set of apps and
drivers Windows ships with.

 

Comments are welcome on his idea.

 

My own comment is that the idea seems to recall what we originally been
discussing a year or more ago, but stopped caring as more devs got more
powerful PCs. There is no strict solution on what goes where now, actually
that's why his idea started - he proposed to move winver and winhlp back to
trunk, and I was arguing over it.

 

 

WBR,

Huh?  The rosapps module isn't included by default in the build to begin
with, so how does it decrease build time?  Also, the applications in there
are supposed to be providing equivalent functionality found in Windows.
Downloader is an exception, but what else is?

Hi.

I suggest to divide rosapps on two parts:

1) Components which are present in Windows (rosapps)
2) 3rd party components (3rdapps)

In rosapps it is necessary to place all components without which the
system can normally work (calc, hh, winhlp32, charmap, games and etc)

In 3rdapps components which are not present in Windows (downloader,
imagesoft and etc) will take places

Such placing of components will allow to reduce compilation time as you
can not compile not the modules necessary to you (rosapps and/or 3rdapps)

Please tell your opinion on my proposition.
