Instead of gui_design, gui_graph, ... I would prefer

  • gui
    • design
    • graph
    • ..

argument_parser would be better as

  • parse
    • argument

About Gobo, it could be exploded into kernel, structure, time, parse, lexical, xml, ... But we can not do that, so what about adding a category "Package", or "Framework"

I would suggest the following 2-layer structure (if there is a new name, the old one is written in parentheses, in particular, something_extension is not very meaningful):

  • base: Kernel library classes, data structure, reflection, I/O
  • concurrency
    • process: Facility to start and follow processes
    • thread: Threading in Eiffel
    • cgi (web): CGI facility for Eiffel
  • external: interface to the external software
    •  ? (api_wrapper): Make it easy to call C routines from dynamically loaded shared libraries
    • com: COM technology
    • java (Eiffel2Java): Calling Java from Eiffel
  • gobo: Gobo
  • gui
    • docking: Facility to have a customizable UI.
    • event: Low level mechanism to receive a UI event when a file/pipe has something new.
    • graph: Representation of graph in UI (See diagram tool in Eiffel Studio).
    • vision2: Platform independent UI toolkit
    •  ? (vision2_extension): Extension to Vision2
    • wel: UI toolkit for Windows
  • storage
    • memory (memory_analyzer): Memory analysis
    • preferences: Facility to store user preferences
    • store: Relational database access
  • text
    • argument (argument_parser): Parsing the command line arguments of a program
    • diff: Diff and patch facilities
    • encoding: Transforming text in one encoding to another encoding
    • i18n: Internationalization library:
    • lex: lexical analysis
    • parse: Parsing:
    • uuid: UUID generation facility
  • util
    •  ? (gobo_extension): ISE gobo extensions
    • net: Networking library
    • testing: Testing facility
    • time: Time facility
