[TYPO3-dev] CGL unchecked library directory in extensions

[Ingo Renner]

Hi *,

When developing extensions there's often a class or library one could use
to not having to reinvent the wheel. The problem with using these
libraries is that you either have to rename them according to the CGL or
you just have to accept that the EM is going to throw warnings about the
naming of the class.
So if you go to rename the class it'll be a lot of work keeping the
extension and especially the used libraries updated.

To circumvent this I would like to introduce a directory in extensions
called "3rdparty" which is not being checked for CGL compliance and naming
errors.
That directory could be used for storing those - like the name says - 3rd
party classes and libraries. The reason why I wouldn't propose "lib" or
something similar is that it is used by some extensions already and that
these directories do not necessaryly contin 3rd party libraries.

So what do you think about that - especially those who would need to
implement it for the EM?


cheers
Ingo
