Actually I'm in favor of getters and setters, XPath is so hellish error prone that I would prefer that noone needs to touch it ;) But I never really figured out if getters and setters are part of the model of the tool in an MVC approach. Having Getters and Setters would make it easier to crea

In general I'm not in favor of shipping empty models that are merely placeholders for future models to come. On the other hand if there are no placeholders, people will never know that these models are there to be expanded. So if we keep them, we need to make clear that they need work and p

Hi all, here the list for /lib/tool, /lib/model and /lib/graphics A clarification of the different states: Need more info means that from the current information I cannot judge what the file does and if it is compatible with MapPaneOL and/or is still needed. Being deprecated means that they stay
