Spindle & T4 - new observation

[Geoff Longman <gl...@gmail.com>]

So, I'm working on the never ending port of Spindle to T4 and I just
noticed something that will definitely clash...

This statement w/regards to searching for page classes in the packages
listed in the application specification :

"The list of packages is optional, and the default Java package is
searched last."

on page:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/UsersGuide/page-class.html

Eclipse doesn't handle the default package well at all. One might note
that Eclipse refactoring, in many cases, will not update classes found
in the default package. Why this is I used to know but have forgotten.
At one point I tried to implement my own handling of default packages
but the code was a mass of spaghetti and I soon ditched it.

Long story short, Spindle will not look for classes in the default package.

Geoff

PS. Ah, I see that Component class searching also occurs this way.
