Describe the architecture of openide & core by answering set of NetBeans Architecture Questions as described at http://openide.netbeans.org/tutorial/api.html
BTW are these questions supposed to be answered per (1) literal module = JAR or (2) per functional category? E.g. - "Modules API" refers to some classes in openide.jar and some in core.jar - "Compiler API" is just openide-compiler.jar, but core-compiler.jar is normally used with it The breakdown seems unclear to me. Existing subissues all seem to be in openide, not core.
Seems we should document both openide/core part, just describe what is in openide what in impl. Window system does it (a bit), lookup will be updated to this model.
So arch-openide-io.xml should describe contents of core/output too? What about core/term etc.?
I guess it should describe both. Or it is possible to create separate documents for each of these parts. That is up to you.
If I use separate documents, where are they supposed to go? Is there some sort of file layout convention already? I ask because there is already an incomplete correspondence between NB module and answer document, and even where there is a subdir in sources for a module (e.g. openide/compiler/) the answers are still in the top-level openide/arch/ dir.
Layout: Should be probably close to the module API. If it is included in the API. But I hae no clear ideas about that.
