I don't have particular opinion about structure but I tried it for
testing purpose.
Here are the results:
1. configure: no problem
2. build no problem
3. with my own project, which relies on a set of libraries, build is OK
but runtime fails with an error I did not used to get:

[fcv@r50m194 Source]$ openapp ./AnimationSculptor.debug/
/home/fcv/Last/AnimationSculptor/AnimationSculptor/Source/AnimationSculptor.debug/AnimationSculptor:
error in loading shared libraries: libASFeatureModeler_d.so.0: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

It seems to be related to either openapp or ld_lib_path.sh. A problem
with definition of LD_LIBRARY_PATH?

Nevertheless, if I install the project, it works nicely.
