The QgslegendInterface implementation manages only top level items

[endmax]

I need to create a groups/layers hierarchy starting from a third-party xml file. The QgslegendInterface implementation is limited to manage only top level item. I've no chance to create sub groups other than inside a top level group or add a layer into a sub-group.
The groupIndex/parentIndex used by the members of QgslegendInterface is used as an item index to top level items in the legend. So far the following members are limited to work only with top level items:

• addGroup(QString name, bool expand, int parentIndex)
• groupExists(int groupIndex)
• isGroupExpanded(int groupIndex)
• isGroupVisible(int groupIndex)
• moveLayer(QgsMapLayer *ml, int groupIndex)
• removeGroup(int groupIndex)
• setGroupExpanded(int groupIndex, bool expand)
• setGroupVisible(int groupIndex, bool visible)

I've modified the previous members in the way the groupIndex is a true index to all group hierarchy. Now the groupIndex values are in range 0 to len(QgslegendInterface.groups()).

Furthermore it would be usefull a moveLayer/moveGroup member to move a layer/group after or before another layer/group. In this way it would be possible to create a new project with an exact groups/layers hierarchy or integrate an existing project with a fragment o groups/layers hierarchy.

Hi

Thanks for popping in to IRC (its a good idea to hang out there as we cant always respond immediately).
I'm going to take a look - usually Marco Hugentobler would be the best person to look at this but he is travelling.
