Can you discuss the difference between the ref
and name
parameters? Unless there is a very good reason not to, I would make those the same.
Any more thoughts on this, or any discussion we can have that will help move this forward?
The difference is that a ref translates to a path, and a name to an url. As an example: sproutcore:runtime refers to a path frameworks/sproutcore/frameworks/runtime, where the name of an app is used only to decide at what url in the dev-server things are going to be served, as well as the directory name the app will be built at.
The reason is that when an app requires a framework, the ref can be used to search for the framework if a class with this ref doesn't yet exist.
Currently, there are two separate syntax models used in the config files:
and
I think it would be nice to have a single syntax model, which would not exclude the options mentioned above but add to them:
Thoughts?
