A step to create ios/android/win32... hybrid project like HelloCpp's folder structure via script

cocos2d-x C++
#1

In this weekend, I successfully used python to deal with .xcodeproj folder, change a existing project into a new one.
The source code is here https://github.com/walzer/cocos2d-x/tree/create-hybrid-project/template-hybrid

Create a new project with extensions & chipmunk:

./create-project.py project MyGamepackage com.MyCompany.AwesomeGame modules extensions chipmunk
Create a new project using lua script:
bq. ./create-project.pyproject HelloWorld package com.PSY.GangnamStylelanguage lua

The design is :

  1. All libraries and header search paths are already added into HelloCpp, HelloLua, HelloJavascript
  2. This script create-project.py will copy HelloLanguage to cocos2d-x/project/<project_name>/ folder, rename HelloLanguage to <project_name>
  3. create-project.py will call template-hybrid/script_/process_proj.py, e.g. script_ios/process_proj.py
  4. process_proj.py in each platform will deal with files in cocos2d-x/project/<project_name>/proj., rename files, replace strings and, remove useless modules.

Comoon design is to add modules into a existing project file, such as Titanium and Cordova do. But my design is firstly we have a big-fat-all-involved project, then remove useless modules from it. Deleting texts via regex is easier than adding texts to specified lines.

I would like to invite your suggestion on this case. This feature #1488 is still on early stage.

Will we get one for cocos2d-x 2.0.3?

Yeah I think we can. This issue is already in 2.0.3’s plan.
Dealing xcode proj is the hardest part, Android.mk is much more easy.
