Overview

Includers are manifests in RunnableGroups.

def layout(container : RunnableContainer, group : RunnableGroup) #

def populate(root : RunnableRoot, container : RunnableContainer, origin : RunnableGroup) #

Populates container with runnables from origin according to the content of the manifest.

  • If there is no explicit * or **, ** is automatically inserted at the very beginning of the manifest regardless of whether it is an application manifest or a library manifest.

  • A directory with no manifest is laid out directly using #layout, since there is no "manifest content" to speak of.
