[forge-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (FORGE-2280) Being able to use ~ as the top level package root directory

Being able to use ~ as the top level package root directory ----------------------------------------------------------- Key: FORGE-2280 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-2280 Project: Forge Issue Type: Feature Request Components: UI - Shell Affects Versions: 2.15.1.Final Reporter: Antonio Goncalves Fix For: 2.x Future In Forge 1.x there was this notion of project root (with {{~~}}) but also the top level package root (with {{~}}). So we could write something like that : {code} new-project --named test --topLevelPackage com.mycomp.myproj java new-class --named Test --package ~.constraints Wrote com.mycomp.myproj.constraints.Test.java {code} With the {{--package ~.constraints}} paramater, it will create a class under {{com.mycomp.myproj.constraints}} because {{~}} represents the top level package {{com.mycomp.myproj}}. This is not possible with Forge 2.x. The same code in Forge 2.x produces the following exception : {code} project-new --named test --topLevelPackage com.mycomp.myproj java-new-class --named Test --targetPackage ~.constraints Exception when parsing/running: java-new-class --named Test6 --targetPackage ~.constraints, Invalid identifier : >~< {code} When writing Forge scripts, it's much easier and reusable to be able to use the {{~}} represents the top level package.
