sancarn / Extended_MapBasic

This is an Open Source project. We are developing a powerful extension for the MapBasic Window in Pitney Bowes' MapInfo. The extension will give users the ability to compile on demand from the MapBasic Window. Further extensions may include custom MapBasic functions to accomplish common tasks. This project is still very much WIP

The repository is already a mess...

Something that should be thought about is how the source code and the repository is organised.

Note - It may be useful to combine all AHK files in the repository into one. For this we can use this

For a start we may want a folder: "src". In this folder we will keep:
The main script, the script to compile, should probably be Main.AHK.
All inclusion statements should be contained in a separate Headers.AHK.
A folder lib_core (storing all .AHK files for the core features compiler.)
A folder lib_emb (storing folders of .AHK files built to extend MapBasic)

Here's a picture of how I envision it:

extended mapbasic organisation

It is likely to end up different to this and many files which should be separate will likely be combined together for splitting later on. I also still don't know whether the header file will work as I think it will. It's all currently untested but this will be much better than its current state.
