New controller questions

[Dennis Leeuw]

Hi all,

Thanks to Richard and Chris I am now working on a test version of 
controller. This version uses the plists instead of its own database.

The downside is that I have to assume that the toplevel (package) is a 
Application, Framework, Bundle, Service, library (a plain unix type of 
library as found in Libraries) or Tool. Is this a safe assumption?

I also have a couple of other questions:
- Libraries has a Libraries/Resources directory, but Tools does not. 
Shouldn't that be also available? And there are only plists for 
gnustep-base and gnustep-gui no other entries for other libs available. 
Is this correct?
- Frameworks sometimes uses a version of A, and sometimes a real version 
like 0.4.1 what is the rule here? Seems like if <type>Version (e.g. 
ApplicationVersion) is not set in the plist A is used, correct?
- For e.g. StepTalk the generic data is stored in Library/StepTalk, 
while there is a ApplicationSupport directory. What is the idea/future?

Next to that I created a couple of plist additions comments and 
suggestions welcome (this one is for GWorkspace as that is what I use 
for testing):
Supplied = (
   {
        Bundles = "";
        Libraries = "libDBKit libFSNode libInspector";
        ColorPickers = "";
        Fonts = "";
        Frameworks = "FSNode Inspector";
        Libraries = "libDBKit libFSNode libInspector";
        Services = "";
        Preferences = "";
        Defaults = "GWorkspace fswatcher ddbd indexer lsfupdater 
resizer searchtool";
        Tools = "indexer lsfupdater resizer searchtool";
        Daemons = "fswatcher ddbd";
        Headers = "FSNode Inspector";
        Applications = "GWorkspace";
        Support = "GWorkspace ddbd Thumbnails Desktop";
        BundlesExt = "inspector finder extinfo thumb"
   }
);

- Support is everything that is added in ${GNUSTEP_USER_ROOT}/Library
- I am still in doubt if BunlesExt and Bundles are needed or if I should 
only use Bundles
- The Tools section is without the ones already mentioned in Daemons... 
no need to duplicate.

Greetings,

Dennis
