CVD package renaming

[Thilo Goetz <tw...@gmx.de>]

All,

I would like to gradually clean up some of the CVD code.  To start with, 
I'd like to rename the packages, annot_view to cvd, and I need to think 
about ts_editor (it's not an editor).  Anybody object to that?  I'll 
need to update the scripts.  Anything else I need to do when renaming 
those packages?

The PearInstaller run Gladis/CVD to verify the installed component. The 
code is available in the uimaj-tools project at 
org.apache.uima.tools.pear.install.InstallPear:runGladis().
The main class that is loaded to start Gladis/CVD is loaded from the 
gladis.properties file.
Maybe when doing some changes here, you can also change the name Gladis 
(used in several methods and comments) to the new name.

Good idea, I'll do that.  I'll wait another day, though, to see if 
anybody else has any suggestions/concerns.

PEAR Installer also launches CVD and may have its class name hardcoded
somewhere.

We might consider leaving around a deprecated stub class under the old
name and just having its main method call the main method of the new
class.  That way if any user had their own script it would continue to
work.

Sounds OK to me.  You might search for any dependencies on what you're 
renaming.
