iOS Question Can Project Folder Structure Be Customised?

[Tom Phillips]

Is there a way to re-structure a project's folders & files without files being copied to the root of the project? For example, the default folder structure takes this form:

- Project
----- Files
       ---- etc...
----- Objects
       ---- etc...
----- AppName.b4i
----- AppName.b4i.meta
----- Main.bas
----- SomeModule.bas
----- AnotherModule.bas
----- Etc.bas

What I would like to do is something like:

- Project
----- Files
        ---- etc...
----- Objects
        ---- etc...
----- Models
        ---- CatModel.bas
        ---- DogModel.bas
------ CustomViews
        ---- CustomModel.bas
        ---- CustomButton.bas
------ AppName.b4i
------ AppName.b4i.meta
------ Main.bas
------ SomeModule.bas
------ AnotherModule.bas
------ Etc.bas

I like to organise my folder structure based on responsibility of the class/module (as is done in the case of projects using design patterns like MVC or MVVM). When projects get large, it's easier to manage organise the files this way. Is it possible?

Currently no.

Okay, thanks for the quick response.

I'm wanting to set up my structure using the MVC or MVVM pattern, and so I found this thread.

I seem to remember reading somewhere in this forum that this is possible now (organizing folders and modules). Is it?

You can group the items in different groups.

 

[cklester]

Awesome! I'll give it a try!

[B4X] Modules, Files, Groups and Folders

The most important point is that the files or module files are not really moved. Groups are not folders. They are just used to organize the resources inside the IDE.
