Re: [Doxygen-develop] DITA XML Support Status

[<jon...@no...>]

Hi, Joel.

Latest patch and binaries now uploaded to https://projects.developer.nokia.com/doxygen_dita/files/.

> When you say latest, do you mean svn or 1.7.4?

Binaries were built against a svn checkout from today, but the patch should apply cleanly to the last stable doxygen release also.

> Other that the obvious reports of success or details on problems, what type of feedback would you like?

Where you think the format (dtd) could be improved, feature requests, bug reports etc.

> It would be good to get this merged so it because more mainstream.

I have created an "enhancement" on doxygens bugzilla and applied the patch so probably best to continue the conversation over there. The url is: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654087.

> We try not to have quirky code in RTEMS but it wouldn't surprise me if someone else found it quirky.  We use a lot of static inline methods to encapsulate functionality in an OO style.

I am sure the kernel engineers here would take exception to my use of the word "quirky" :), but I'm not as smart as those guys so some of it looks "quirky" to me.

> I am just getting started on this experiment.  Is there a good guide for the process of getting from Doxygen all the way to the Information Centre?

None that I know off. Once you get doxygen outputting the dita xml running the DITA OT with our plug-in should get you most of the way there (DITA OT supports outputting as Eclipse jar files). We need to use 64bit java and give it a LOT of ram to get it to build all of Symbian OS so that might be something to watch out for.

Jonathan.
