[vrjuggler-devel] [Task #45185] expanded help info in chunkdesc files

[SourceForge.net <no...@so...>]

Task #45185 has been updated. 

Project: VR Juggler
Subproject: JCCL
Summary: expanded help info in chunkdesc files
Complete: 0%
Status: Closed
Authority  : coronax
Assigned to: nobody

Description: Currently, keeping track of the chunk-specific help files (in data/DescHelp etc.) is a real pain, and we've done a poor job of keeping them up to date.  While we're looking at xml/docbook processing for the main juggler documentation, we can also explore doing some kind of xslt transformation to generate those docs directly from the chunkdesc file.



To do that, we need to expand the help info that can be stored for chunkdescs & propertydescs. we could do this by providing separate basic_help and expanded_help elements, for example.

Comment:
This task is pretty out of date with respect to the way things work now.  The basic idea as I remember it was to investigate using JavaHelp as a way to do more fancy/advanced things with help information.  However, VRJConfig can now display HTML help that is pulled from the .jdef file.  This is good enough, I think.
