Just a quick follow-up: I don't think that simplification of the string
operations is a good motivation for keeping the directory the same length as
the name of the main aircraft directory. Restricting the directory name is
something that will irrevocably backfire on us, and I don't think it is
necessary. We use SimGear's SGPath classes throughout the program (for
portability reasons), and it would only be about two or three lines of
additional code to set up alternative paths for a directory such as
Aircraft/737-300 and AI/Aircraft/737-300.
As an example of the use of SGPath, have a look at: Airports/simple.cxx (line
96).
SGPath parkpath( globals->get_fg_root() );
parkpath.append( "/Airports/AI/" );
parkpath.append(_id);
parkpath.append("parking.xml");
SGPath rwyPrefPath( globals->get_fg_root() );
rwyPrefPath.append( "/Airports/AI/" );
rwyPrefPath.append(_id);
rwyPrefPath.append("rwyuse.xml");
