;;; Commentary:

;; This file contains generic infrastructure for dealing with
;; projects, and a number of public functions: finding the current
;; root, related project directories, and library directories.  This
;; list is to be extended in future versions.
;;
;; The goal is to make it easier for Lisp programs to operate on the
;; current project, without having to know which package handles
;; detection of that project type, parsing its config files, etc.

The standard categories are:

`primary': It means that DIR is a part of PROJECT, as opposed to
simply being in the headers search path, load path, class path, etc.

At least one of the `project-directories' elements must belong to
this category.  When a projects has dependencies, the backend is
allowed to designate some of them to be `primary' as well, if it
knows that they are developed together with the main project.

`sources': DIR contains files with source code.

`tests': DIR contains test files.")

;; FIXME: Using the current approach, major modes are supposed to set
;; this variable to a buffer-local value.  So we don't have access to
;; the "related directories" of language A from buffers of language B,
;; which seems desirable in multi-language projects, at least for some
;; potential uses, like "jump to a file in any related directory".
;;
;; We can add a second argument to this function: a file extension, or
;; a language name.  Some projects will know the set of languages used
;; in them; for others, like VC-based projects, we'll need
;; auto-detection.  I see two options:
;;
;; - That could be implemented as a separate second hook, with a
;;   list of functions that return file extensions.
;;
;; - This variable will be turned into a hook with "append" semantics,
;;   and each function in it will perform auto-detection when passed
;;   nil instead of an actual file extension.  Then this hook will, in
;;   general, be modified globally, and not from major mode functions.
