It wasn't actually providing any value. Neither tools nor core have any special
dependencies. The code in tools operates on the same files, formats and data
structures that core/runtime code operates on. It is simpler to have them in
the same module.
I don't want to pollute the com.threerings top-level namespace with a bunch of
getdown-foo artifacts, and grouping everything under the top-level project
name, even when that name is repeated for all the artifacts is fairly standard
practice.
- core: the main Getdown logic code
- tools: code to create digest.txt & patch files
- launcher: the standalone launcher/updater app
- ant: the Ant task for creating digest.txt files
This paves the way for a proper Jigsaw-ification of the Getdown code.
I may further factor code out of getdown-launcher and into getdown-core to
enable the use-case where an app embeds Getdown completely and does not use the
launcher app/UI. That will also make it easier to create a JavaFX UI and retire
the old Swing UI.
This also moves the obsolete applet code into a separate applet module, which
is merely a temporary holding area. It will be deleted in the next commit.
