[SailfishDevel] Update on application naming for Harbour applications

[Jonni Rainisto]

Hi,

developer-care at jolla.com<http://jolla.com> should be able to answer that one. All my answers are just AFAIK as I'm not in the team that does the Harbour and it's policies. My guess would be that unfortunately one more rename is needed.

I already renamed couple of my personal projects and submitted them in (still in QA).

Hi,

Whoever grabs the name first keeps it (AFAIK). So of someone before you takes harbour-videocam, you can do something like harbour-videocam-artem or some other unique name.

So if $NAME == harbour-videocam then:
/usr/bin/$NAME == /usr/bin/harbour-videocam
/usr/share/$NAME == /usr/share/harbour-videocam
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/86x86/apps/$NAME.png == /usr/share/icons/hicolor/86x86/apps/harbour-videocam.png

So forget the domain names with dots as current tools dont really support them currently.

What if there are two packages in app store named harbour-videocam?
Or whoever grabs the name first keeps it?

What about the main app binary name and it's data folder?
Shall they be harbour-videocam or com.supercell.videocam? Or harbour-com.supercell.videocam?

Cheers,
Artem.

Hi,

Domain part is not needed anymore, so its in the form of:

harbour-applicationname

That way for example "harbour-videocam"-package doesnt confilict with possible systems "videocam"-package.

harbour-org.coderus.application

why?
