I am using Eclipse + pydev and have no existing source folders, but have nested modules such as root.nested described in http://pydev.org/manual_101_first_module.html. Would it make any sence to have several several folders given that each package creates its own subfolder (and packages have to reside in a source folder). In other words: why would it make sense to have packages in different source folders?
Thanks!
From the docs below, it sounds like ‘source folder’ is just a special designation within PyDev that causes PyDev to automatically add that folder to the PYTHONPATH for the project. I guess it’s more of a personal preference as to how you want to organize your project.
