Feature requests / File manager

« on: August 15, 2007, 08:16:01 pm »

I think useful storing datas in a unique file for multimedia applications, compressed or not.

A file manager natively included in SFML can make easier this kind of handling.

For example,

Code: [Select]

sfFileManager::Open("FolderFoo/FolderBar/Archive.zip/FolderBoo/ArchiveFar.pkg/FinallyTheFile")

Cute no ?

Feature requests / Log manager

« on: August 15, 2007, 08:06:51 pm »

Why do not implement a global log manager, with multiple level of detail, multiple source of log, etc ...

That could be useful for debugging.

We can imagine something like that :

Code: [Select]

log << log::level::GAME << "High level, game log." << log::end;
log << log::level::KERNEL << "Low level, SFML log." << log::end;

And developpers can set a log level and see more or less details.

Used in Linux I think.

General discussions / why not using a namespace

« on: August 15, 2007, 05:54:40 pm »

I agree with mweb. Namespaces had been created especially for this kind of consideration.

Indeed do not using namespace won't kill every babies seals of the world, but why do not use something especially created for that ?

I think mweb is right, it won't be necessary : that's just C++ philosophy, a C++ concept. A way to respect the reason.

Well, ok, I know that's not really important
