classmap_generator inside metapackage

[jeanCarloMachado]

I recently upgraded my project to Zend Framework 2.5, so I choose to select only the packages that are necessary for me. Unfortunately the classmap_generator is a requirement and it is contained inside the metapackage zf2 making it a huge dependency. Maybe it could be moved to zend-console or somewhere else.

I don't know what is the future of this tool but why this is a requirement? Can you use composer's classmap? :)

[jeanCarloMachado]

I'll consider that thanks for the advice. Yet for now I must remain using classmap_generator because all my own modules uses it separately. Anyway it looks an issue in my opinion.

I have a similar problem with the templatemap generator, I have to load the complete ZF2 to be able to use it. A small repo containing the bin scripts would be nice. Or something else?

Any news on this?

Is this still needed, considered composer support?

@rohm1 The template map generator has moved to zend-view already; you can require that package to use it.

The classmap generator should likely move to the zend-loader package, as it's mostly related to that functionality. @FabianKoestring — would you be willing to do so?

@weierophinney - yea i will create a pr!
